Firm Was My Health (EN 795)

EN 795 Firm Was My Health

Ps.30.6

Versi Version 1

1

Firm was my health, my day was bright,

And I presumed ’twould ne’er be night;

Fondly I said within my heart,

“Pleasure and peace shall ne’er depart.”

2

But I forgot Thine arm was strong

Which made my mountain stand so long;

Soon as Thy face began to hide,

My health was gone, my comforts died.

3

I cried aloud to Thee, my God,

“What canst Thou profit by my blood?

Deep in the dust can I declare

Thy truth, or sing Thy goodness there?

4

“Hear me, O God of grace,” I said,

“And bring me from among the dead:”

Thy Word rebuked the pains I felt,

Thy pardoning love removed my guilt.

5

My groans, and tears, and forms of woe

Are turned to joy and praises now;

I throw my sackcloth on the ground,

And ease and gladness gird me round.

6

My tongue, the glory of my frame,

Shall ne’er be silent of Thy Name;

Thy praise shall sound through earth and Heav’n,

For sickness healed and sins forgiv’n.
