PSALM 32. (S. M.) Forgiveness of Sins upon Confession.
I
O blessed souls are theyWhose sins are cover'd o'er!
Divinely blest, to whom the Lord
Imputes their guilt no more!
II
They mourn their follies past,And keep their hearts with care;
Their lips and lives, without deceit,
Shall prove their faith sincere.
III
While I conceal'd my guiltI felt the fest'ring wound,
'Till I confess'd my sins to thee,
And ready pardon found.
IV
Let sinners learn to pray,Let saints keep near the throne;
Our help, in times of deep distress,
Is found in God alone.
