19 But my affliction 's not forgot The bitter wormwood and the gall 20 My soul doth still remember these And 's humbled in me under all The Second Part. 21 Yet this consider'd stays my grief It 's mercy that we yet do live 22 And that we are not all consum'd But God doth Hope and Being give 23 Mercies are every morning new God's love and faithfulness is great 24 The Lord 's my portion saith my soul Therefore my hope on him is set 25 Surely to all that wait for him The Lord is ever good and kind The soul that truly seeketh him At last shall his compassion find 26 It is man's only way to good Whatever be his grief and streight For the salvation of the Lord In hope and quietness to wait 27 Surely it is for man's own good In youth to bear the taming yoke 28 He sits alone and silence keeps Instructed by God's teaching stroke 29 His mouth he putteth in the dust Submits to any terms of hope 30 He gives his cheeks to him that smites With lying railers will not cope 31 God will not ever cast us off Nor from his chosen people go 32 Though he cause grief his mercies great In time will his compassion show 33 He doth not willingly afflict Nor love the sons of men to grieve 34 To crush earth's prisoners under feet Whom mercy rather would relieve 35 That Judges should deny men right In men of power God doth not love 36 To subvert just men in their cause The righteous Lord doth not approve The Third Part. 37 Whos 's word can stand when God gain-says Who can o'rethrow his potent will 38 The good or ill that us befals His word and counsel do fulfil 39 Why should a man chastis'd for sin Who 's yet alive grudge and complain 40 It 's better search and try our ways Repent and turn to God again 41 O let us lift up hearts and hands For help and hope to God in heav'n 42 We all have sinned and rebell'd And thou our sin hast not forgiven 43 From us poor persecuted men With wrath thou coverest thy face Thy just displeasure hath us slain Not pitying our doleful case 44 Cover'd thou art from our access Inclosed in a darksome cloud Which prayers do not penetrate Though suff'ring make them long and loud 45 Among the people we are made The refuse scorn and off-scouring 46 Our enemies mouths wide open'd are Thy flock's to them a scorned thing 47 Fear and a snare on us are come Anguish and ruin is our state 48 Mine eyes with streaming tears bemoan Thy broken flock that 's desolate 49 My heart still feeds my trickling eyes My grief and weeping ceaseth not 50 Till God in mercy look from heav'n On those that now do seem forgot 51 Mine eye affects my soul with grief To see my City's woful case 52 Mine enemies hunt me causelesly As Fowler 's harmless birds do chase 53 To prison they condemned me And shut me up sentenc'd for death 54 The waters overflow'd my head Seeming to stop my vital breath The Fourth Part. 55 I called on thy name O Lord In the low dungeon like to die 56 Thou heard'st my voice hide not thine ear Now from my doleful sighs and cry 57 In that day when I call'd on thee To succour me thou didst draw near Encouraging my fainting soul Thou kindly bidst me Do not fear 58 Thou Lord against oppressing men Didst undertake and plead my cause Thou hast redeem'd my threaten'd life From wicked mens devouring jaws 59 O Lord thou hast seen all my wrong Judge thou my cause whose word I speak 60 Their plots and vengeance thou hast seen Me and thy righteous Laws to break 61 Lord thou their false reproach hast heard The plots which they for me did lay 62 The words of those that me accus'd Their plots against me all the day 63 When to their ease their feasts their play In pride and pleasure they refort Thou seest though they fear not thee I am their musick scorn and sport 64 Render to them a recompense According to their unjust deed 65 Through thy just curse upon their hearts Let deserv'd grief and sorrow feed 66 Persecute thou these men in wrath Who persecute me and thy word Destroy them let them not abide Under thy Heav'ns O righteous Lord.
