thou_o the_o conjunction_n of_o praise_n and_o thanksgiving_n and_o may_v sing_v
and_o say_v o_o lord_n i_o will_v praise_v thou_o though_o thou_o be_v angry_a with_o i_o yet_o thy_o anger_n be_v turn_v away_o behold_v god_n be_v my_o salvation_n i_o will_v crust_n and_o not_o be_v afraid_a but_o how_o can_v god_n return_v to_o deliver_v i_o and_o to_o save_v i_o if_o he_o return_v not_o a_o deliverer_n and_o a_o saviour_n and_o when_o will_v this_o be_v o_o my_o soul_n in_o how_o much_o better_a state_n be_v thou_o than_o david_n be_v for_o he_o only_o expect_v when_o it_o shall_v be_v but_o thou_o be_v assure_v when_o it_o be_v for_o than_o be_v god_n manifest_v to_o return_v a_o deliverer_n and_o a_o saviour_n when_o the_o angel_n bring_v this_o tiding_n to_o the_o shepherd_n this_o day_n be_v bear_v to_o you_o a_o saviour_n of_o who_o also_o a_o voice_n from_o heaven_n testify_v this_o be_v my_o well-beloved_a son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v oh_o then_o return_v to_o i_o in_o this_o saviour_n in_o who_o thou_o be_v well_o please_v that_o so_o i_o may_v be_v sure_a for_o so_o i_o shall_v be_v sure_a thou_o will_v not_o chasten_v i_o in_o thy_o displeasure_n as_o there_o have_v be_v many_o particular_a deluge_n and_o flood_n yet_o but_o one_o general_a so_o there_o have_v be_v many_o particular_a deliverer_n and_o saviour_n yet_o but_o one_o general_a and_o from_o this_o general_a saviour_n it_o be_v that_o i_o desire_v &_o expect_v salvation_n for_o though_o his_o be_v a_o general_a saviour_n may_v make_v he_o be_v think_v less_o careful_a of_o i_o have_v so_o many_o other_o to_o care_n for_o beside_o yet_o have_v no_o fear_n of_o that_o my_o soul_n see_v he_o be_v as_o much_o a_o saviour_n to_o i_o as_o if_o he_o be_v a_o saviour_n to_o none_o but_o i_o and_o this_o general_a saviour_n will_v save_v i_o general_o not_o only_o from_o temporal_a but_o from_o spiritual_a enemy_n not_o only_o from_o trouble_n of_o bone_n but_o from_o trouble_n of_o soul_n not_o only_o from_o misery_n here_o on_o earth_n but_o even_o from_o misery_n when_o earth_n itself_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o o_o happy_a salvation_n when_o this_o saviour_n shall_v come_v and_o save_v i_o but_o how_o may_v i_o do_v to_o get_v he_o to_o come_v for_o he_o come_v not_o but_o upon_o some_o motive_n if_o i_o have_v all_o the_o gold_n of_o ophir_n i_o will_v willing_o give_v it_o all_o to_o get_v he_o to_o come_v and_o save_v i_o but_o alas_o i_o neither_o have_v it_o to_o give_v nor_o do_v he_o care_v to_o have_v it_o if_o any_o thing_n win_v he_o to_o do_v it_o it_o must_v be_v for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n and_o for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n he_o will_v do_v it_o if_o ever_o he_o will_v do_v it_o but_o be_v not_o this_o strange_a my_o weakness_n be_v the_o motive_n before_o to_o move_v god_n to_o mercy_n and_o must_v his_o mercy_n now_o be_v itself_o the_o motive_n to_o move_v he_o to_o save_v i_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v for_o when_o god_n mercy_n find_v no_o motive_n from_o we_o rather_o than_o fail_v of_o move_v it_o become_v a_o motive_n to_o itself_o and_o happy_a it_o be_v from_o we_o that_o so_o it_o be_v for_o else_o we_o may_v often_o be_v without_o it_o when_o most_o we_o need_v it_o or_o rather_o always_o be_v without_o it_o see_v we_o always_o need_v it_o indeed_o this_o motive_n for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n be_v the_o primum_fw-la mobile_a of_o all_o motive_n to_o god_n for_o show_v his_o favour_n he_o have_v never_o deliver_v the_o israelite_n out_o of_o egypt_n but_o for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n he_o have_v never_o save_v noah_n in_o the_o ark_n but_o for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n but_o above_o all_o he_o have_v never_o send_v his_o son_n to_o save_v the_o world_n but_o for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n and_o how_o then_o can_v i_o doubt_v and_o not_o rather_o be_v confident_a that_o for_o his_o mercy_n sake_n he_o will_v also_o deliver_v my_o soul_n and_o save_v i_o never_o therefore_o my_o soul_n look_v after_o any_o further_a motive_n for_o upon_o this_o motive_n will_v i_o set_v up_o my_o rest_n his_o mercy_n shall_v be_v both_o my_o anchor_n and_o my_o harbour_n it_o shall_v be_v both_o my_o armour_n and_o my_o fortress_n it_o shall_v be_v both_o my_o ransom_n and_o my_o garland_n it_o shall_v be_v both_o my_o deliverance_n and_o my_o salvation_n and_o now_o o_o god_n thou_o see_v the_o manifold_a trouble_n i_o be_o in_o thou_o see_v how_o weak_a i_o be_o thou_o see_v how_o my_o bone_n be_v trouble_v thou_o see_v how_o my_o soul_n be_v trouble_v and_o what_o now_o can_v thy_o chasten_a hand_n have_v more_o of_o i_o but_o only_o to_o take_v away_o my_o life_n and_o even_o my_o life_n i_o will_v willing_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o appease_v thy_o displeasure_n verse_n 5_o but_o alas_o o_o lord_n what_o good_a can_v it_o be_v to_o thou_o to_o have_v i_o die_v can_v i_o praise_v thou_o in_o the_o dust_n but_o can_v i_o praise_v thou_o when_o i_o be_o turn_v to_o dust_n be_v there_o remembrance_n of_o thou_o in_o death_n or_o be_v there_o hallow_v of_o thy_o name_n in_o the_o grave_n as_o long_o as_o i_o have_v breath_n in_o my_o body_n i_o can_v praise_v thy_o name_n unworthy_o indeed_o but_o yet_o i_o can_v praise_v it_o as_o long_o as_o i_o be_o number_v among_o the_o live_n i_o can_v show_v myself_o thy_o servant_n a_o unprofitable_a one_o indeed_o but_o yet_o a_o servant_n but_o if_o my_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v dissolve_v once_o alas_o than_o all_o my_o service_n of_o praise_v thou_o be_v at_o a_o end_n i_o can_v then_o do_v it_o though_o i_o will_v but_o i_o can_v then_o will_v it_o though_o i_o shall_v my_o soul_n will_v want_v her_o instrument_n with_o which_o thy_o praise_n shall_v be_v sound_v o_o vile_a death_n i_o hate_v thou_o for_o nothing_o so_o much_o as_o for_o thy_o hinder_v i_o in_o this_o service_n o_o cruel_a grave_n i_o abhor_v thou_o so_o much_o for_o nothing_o as_o for_o thy_o stop_v my_o mouth_n for_o this_o praise_v o_o merciful_a god_n if_o i_o can_v but_o remember_v thou_o in_o death_n i_o will_v never_o be_v loath_a to_o die_v if_o i_o can_v but_o praise_v thou_o in_o the_o grave_n i_o will_v willing_o go_v to_o it_o of_o myself_o and_o never_o be_v carry_v to_o it_o by_o force_n but_o alas_o death_n be_v forgetful_a the_o grave_n be_v dumb_a and_o therefore_o deliver_v my_o soul_n o_o god_n save_v i_o for_o thy_o mercy_n sake_n it_o be_v not_o life_n that_o be_v so_o dear_a unto_o i_o but_o that_o in_o life_n i_o may_v praise_v thou_o that_o be_v so_o dear_a unto_o i_o it_o be_v not_o death_n that_o be_v so_o frightful_a to_o i_o but_o this_o affright_v i_o in_o death_n that_o be_v dead_a i_o can_v remember_v thou_o it_o be_v not_o the_o grave_n that_o be_v so_o loathsome_a to_o i_o but_o that_o in_o the_o grave_n i_o be_o force_v to_o forget_v thou_o if_o death_n will_v spare_v i_o but_o to_o praise_v thou_o let_v death_n come_v and_o never_o spare_v i_o if_o the_o grave_n will_v but_o let_v i_o be_v sensible_a of_o thou_o the_o grave_n shall_v come_v and_o be_v welcome_a to_o i_o but_o alas_o death_n have_v no_o mercy_n the_o grave_n have_v no_o sense_n and_o therefore_o return_v o_o lord_n and_o deliver_v my_o soul_n save_v i_o for_o thy_o mercy_n sake_n who_o know_v not_o that_o death_n be_v a_o mortal_a enemy_n to_o all_o natural_a memory_n and_o therefore_o make_v all_o man_n at_o last_o to_o end_v in_o a_o lethargy_n and_o what_o hope_v then_o of_o remember_v thou_o in_o death_n who_o know_v not_o that_o the_o grave_n never_o open_v its_o mouth_n to_o let_v out_o any_o thing_n but_o still_o to_o take_v in_o and_o what_o mean_v then_o of_o praise_v thou_o in_o the_o grave_n if_o i_o can_v but_o get_v death_n to_o learn_v the_o art_n of_o memory_n or_o if_o i_o can_v but_o hear_v the_o grave_n to_o say_v once_o it_o have_v enough_o i_o can_v then_o like_a to_o have_v some_o deal_n with_o death_n some_o traffic_n with_o the_o grave_n but_o alas_o death_n lethargy_n be_v incurable_a the_o grave_n mouth_n be_v insatiable_a and_o therefore_o return_v o_o lord_n and_o deliver_v my_o soul_n save_v i_o for_o thy_o mercy_n sake_n but_o do_v david_n prayer_n tend_v to_o this_o that_o he_o may_v not_o see_v death_n be_v this_o the_o intent_n
