CONFIDENCE IN GOD
Happy, beyond expression blegs’d,
The man that knows the Lord ;
Whose hope relies on Jacob’s God,
And rests upon his word.
Blessed are they, who, hating strife.
Promote true peace and love;
They shall be called the sons of God—
And this their actions prove.
Blessed, says Jesus, are the poor.
The men of broken heart;
They shall enjoy the promis’d rest,
Tho’ now for sin they smart.
’Tis God supports our feeble frame,
When we’re with troubles toss’d ;
We’ll trust his grace for all we want.
Nor can our hopes be lost.
Let others worship glitt’ring dust.
And boast of earthly toys—
Christ is our rock, our hope, our trust,
And spring of all our joys.
