Job 30:24: Chastised and afflicted below

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

Chastised and afflicted below,
A sinner I cannot complain.
But pass through the valley of woe.
And stoop to my burden of pain:
And here if my judgment I have.
His anger He will not extend.
But lay me to rest in my grave
With mercy that never shall end.
