Verse 1
Sing to the God of faithful love!
His goodness and his truth we prove,
Allur’d into the wilderness; (Hosea 2:14)
Beneath the long-incumbent cloud,
We praise the twofold gift of God,
The joyous, and the patient grace.
Verse 2
Who to his people came unsought,
He hath into the desart brought, (Hosea 2:14)
And fenc’d us round with sacred thorn, (Hosea 2:6)
Reprov’d our unbelieving haste,
And given our humbled souls to taste
The blessedness of all that mourn. (Matt. 5:4, Luke 6:21)
