Thou giv'st the mourners rest.

And guides our giddy youth;
Holy and just are all his ways,
And all his words are truth.

He hears his children cry,
And their best wishes to fulfil
His grace is ever nigh.

From men of heart sincere;
He saves the souls whose humble love
Is join'd with holy fear.

And pierce their hearts with pain;
But none that serve the Lord shall say,
"They sought his aid in vain.]

And spread his fame abroad;
Let all the sons of Adam raise
The honours of their God.] Scripture: Psalm 145:17-21 Languages: English
