Isaac Watts - Psalm 119 part 14
Work rating: Low

Benefit of afflictions, and support under them.

ver. 153,81,82 

Consider all my sorrows, Lord,
And thy deliv`rance send;
My soul for thy salvation faints
When will my troubles end?

ver. 71 

Yet I have found `tis good for me
To bear my Father`s rod;
Afflictions make me learn thy law,
And live upon my God.

ver. 50 

This is the comfort I enjoy
When new distress begins-
I read thy word, I run thy way,
And hate my former sins.

ver. 92 

Had not thy word been my delight
When earthly joys were fled,
My soul, oppressed with sorrow`s weight
Had sunk amongst the dead.

ver. 75 

I know thy judgments, Lord, are right,
Though they may seem severe;
The sharpest suff`rings I endure
Flow from thy faithful care.

ver. 67 

Before I knew thy chast`ning rod
My feet were apt to stray;
But now I learn to keep thy word,
Nor wander from thy way.
