The Almighty troubleth me.
Job 23:16
if he trouble me with one hand,
he will support and comfort me with the other.
as the frost and snow of winter are for the earth.
and put power into our religion.
and he troubles us now,
that he may comfort us by and by.
it is evident he does not forget us,
he has not cast us off: and
it is equally evident that he has blessings in store for us,
which our present troubles are to qualify us to enjoy.
but remember that he is all-sufficient in the midst of them,
and that he will bring you safe out of them.
and heart-felt sorrow for sin,
he will trouble you with his fierce wrath
and indignation forever.
Troubled by the Almighty I,
From the fiery furnace cry,
Jesus, now thy grace in part,
Come and sanctify my heart:
Let me in my suffering prove
All thy tender, constant love.
