II.XL. Our comfort in the covenant made with Christ

1 Our God! how firm his promise stands!
Ev'n when he hides his face,
He trusts in our Redeemer’s hands
His glory and his grace.

2 Then why, my soul, these sad complaints,
Since Christ and thou are one?
Thy God is faithful to his saints,
Is faithful to his son.

3 Beneath his smiles my heart hath liv'd;
And part of heav'n possess'd;
I praise his name for grace receiv'd,
And trust him for the rest.
