PSALM 30. First Part. (L. M.) Sickness healed and Sorrow removed.
I
I will extol thee, Lord, on high,At thy command diseases fly;
Who but a God can speak and save
From the dark borders of the grave?
II
Sing to the Lord, ye saints of his,And tell how large his goodness is;
Let all your powers rejoice and bless,
While you record his holiness.
III
His anger but a moment stays;His love is life and length of days;
Though grief and tears the night employ,
The morning-star restores the joy.
