Songs in Such a Night.

Psal: 42.5,11.
Oppress'd with Loads of Grief Art thou
My Soul, O why dejected so?
Why do thy Grevious passions now
Into a Restless Tumult grow!
In God thy Hope Rejoycing place;
My God He is by Covenant;
I'll praise Him still: Joy to my Face
The Help of His will surely grant.
I Sam. 1.15,18.
My Spirit is, how Sorrowful!
But Lord, I do pour out before
Thy Grace the Sorrows of my Soul;
And now I will be Sad no more.
I Pet. 1.8.

The CHRIST I see not, yet I know,
I Trust and Love; Thro' CHRIST there is given
A Joy unutterable to
My Faith, a Joy that's full of Heaven.
