_Verse. _ My God, I'm wounded by my sin,
And sore without, and sick within.
_Ver. Chor. _ I come to Thee, in hope to find
Salve for my body and my mind.
_Verse. _ In Gilead though no balm be found
To ease this smart or cure this wound,
_Ver. Chor. _ Yet, Lord, I know there is with Thee
All saving health, and help for me.
_Verse. _ Then reach Thou forth that hand of Thine,
That pours in oil, as well as wine,
_Ver. Chor. _ And let it work, for I'll endure
The utmost smart, so Thou wilt cure.


18. UPON GOD.
God is all fore-part; for, we never see
Any part backward in the Deity.


19. CALLING AND CORRECTING.

God is not only merciful to call
Men to repent, but when He strikes withal.


20. NO ESCAPING THE SCOURGING.

God scourgeth some severely, some He spares;
But all in smart have less or greater shares.


21. THE ROD.

God's rod doth watch while men do sleep, and then
The rod doth sleep, while vigilant are men.


22. GOD HAS A TWOFOLD PART.

God, when for sin He makes His children smart,
His own He acts not, but another's part;
But when by stripes He saves them, then 'tis known
He comes to play the part that is His own.


23. GOD IS ONE.

God, as He is most holy known,
So He is said to be most one.
