19. An Hymn to GOD, the Preserver of Men

1 No Change of Times shall ever shake
My Trust, Great God, in Thee:
For Thou my Saviour, Thou, my Rock,
And sure Defence shalt be.

2 Thou, Guardian-like, didst shield from Wrongs
My helpless Infant Days;
And, since, hast been my God and Guide
Thro' life's bewilder'd Ways.

3 Reject not then thy Servant, Lord,
When I with Age decay;
Forsake me not,when worn with Years,
My Vigour fades away.

4 O! keep me in thy tend'rest Care;
Thy shelt'ring Wings extend,
To guard me from the num'rous Ills,
Which this rail Life attend!

5 So shall my Soul with Praise, O God,
Extol thy wondrous Love;
And on thy Name with Patience wait,
Till I from Earth, remove.
