    A hymn written by Isaac Watts. (in common meter)

    "Support Under Trials On Earth"

    1. When I can read my title clear
    To mansions in the skies;
    I bid farewell to every fear,
    And wipe my weeping eyes.

    2. Should earth against my soul engage,
    And hellish darts be hurl'd,
    Then I can smile at Satan's rage,
    And face a frowning world.

    3. Let cares like a wild deluge come,
    Let storms of sorrow fall;
    May I but safely reach my home,
    My God, my Heaven, my all.

    4. There shall I bathe my weary soul
    In seas of heavenly rest,
    And not a wave of trouble roll
    Across my peaceful breast.
