HOPE AND ENCOURAGEMENT.

Engraved on my heart doth for ever remain !
The palms of my hands, while I look on, I see
The wounds I received when suffering for

For thou art most near me, my flesh and my
bones ;
In all thy distresses thy Head feels the pain,
Yet all are most needful, not one is in vain.
6 ‘Then trust me, and fear not, thy life is se­
cure ;
My wisdom is perfect, supreme is my power;
In love I correct thee, thy soul to refine,
To make thee at length in my likeness to
shine.

When Gabriel’s trumpet you shall hear
Sound through the earth, yea, down to hell,
To call the nations, great and small.
4 To see the earth in burning flames,
The trumpet louder here proclaims:
