I oft consider'd with my self Th' unequal ways of Providence I found them hard to be resolv'd And doubts long kept me in suspence At God's House I at last enquir'd And there did my mistakesamend Before I onely view'd their way But now I understood their end I saw the slippery precipice On which their tottering feet were plac'd And with what terrours they were seiz'd When down to sudden ruine cast Their Happiness was like a dream Which waking quickly vanishes Lord what a stupid Beast was I To vex my self at their Success For all this while I was thy care By thee sustain'd tho suffering Thy Counsels here shall guide me still And afterward to Glory bring Lord there is none in Heav'n or Earth On whom I can rely like thee For when my heart and hopes here fail My Stay and Portion thou wilt be But those that are from God estrang'd Or unto hateful Idols bow Shall furely their own ruine meet And a deserved Overthrow God is my chiefest Good 't is best To keep me to my God most nigh Then I his Mercy and his Truth Shall praise when I on him rely PSALM LXXIII Another Metre IT 's sure that God is kind to those That are sincerely good But yet my Faith was at a loss I staggered where I stood Viewing bad men tho' foolish here To prosper envy rose To see an easy Death an Age Of health and vigour close From troubles freed that other men Strive to escape in vain They boast in violence and pride Surrounds them like a chain Pamper'd with Luxury and Ease Their looks are fat and fair Their wealth flows in beyond their hopes And oft without their Care T' opprese the weak their lofty pride No scruple feels nor shame They dare Heav'n to blaspheme and blast Freely the Good man's Name This gives disturbance to his thoughts And makes his tears to flow And now he doubts whether God knows Or minds what 's done below Th' ungodly are the prosp'rous men Grow rich and thrive amain I 've wash'd my hands in Innocence And cleans'd my heart in vain For every Morn my plague's renew'd In grief whole days I spend But stay such words against the Faith Of all good men offend Part II. I oft debated with my self God's ways of Providence I found the search too hard and doubts Long kept me in suspence Till coming to God's House I there Did my Mistakes amend Before I view'd their way but now I understood their end I saw the slippery precipice On which their feet were plac'd And with what terrours seiz'd when down To sudden ruine cast Their happiness was like a dream Which waking vanishes Lord what a Beast was I to vex My self at their Success For still I was thy care by thee Sustain'd tho' suffering Thy Counsels they shall
