XXX. GOD'S Name the Encouragement of our Faith.

SING to the LORD, who loud proclaims
His various, and his saving Names;
O may they not be heard alone,
But by our sure Experience known!

Let great Jehovah be ador'd,
Th' Eternal, All-sufficient LORD,
He thro' the World most high confess'd,
By whom 'twas form'd, and is possess'd.

Awake our noblest Pow'rs to bless
The GOD of Abram, GOD of Peace;
Now by a dearer Title known,
Father and GOD of CHRIST his Son.

Thro' ev'ry Age his gracious Ear
Is open to his Servants Pray'r,
Nor can one humble Soul complain,
That it has sought it's GOD in vain.

What unbelieving Heart shall dare
In Whispers to suggest a Fear?
While still he owns his ancient Name,
The same his Pow'r, his Love the same.

To thee our Souls in Faith arise,
To thee we lift expecting Eyes;
And boldly thro' the Desart tread,
For GOD will guard, where GOD shall lead.
