Let others boast how strong they be
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XIX (1766) Lyrics: 1 Let others boast how strong they be,
Nor Death nor Danger fear;
But we'll confess, O Lord, to thee,
What feeble Things we are.
2 Fresh as the Grass our Bodies stand,
And flourish bright and gay,
A blasting Wind sweeps o'er the Land,
And fades the Grass away.
3 Our Life contains a thousand Springs,
And dies if one be gone;
Strange! that a Harp of thousand Strings,
Should keep in Tune so long!
4 But 'tis our God supports our Frame,
The God that built us first;
Salvation to th' Almighty Name
That rear'd us from the Dust.
[5 He spoke, and strait our Hearts and Brains
In all their Motions rose;
Let Blood, said he, flow round the Veins,
And round the Veins it flows.
6 While we have Breath, or use our Tongues,
Our Maker we'll adore:
His Spirit moves our heaving Lungs,
Or they would breathe no more.] Topics: Earth and Heaven; Health preserved; Life preserved; Presence of God, Preserver of our Lives; Bodies frail Languages: English
