Job 34:31: Chasten'd I all my days have been
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Chasten'd I all my days have been,
And justly sufifer'd for my sin.
But shall I still my God offend,
Till sin and life together end?
Father, I trust Thy faithful love
My sinful nature to remove.
Till fill'd with Christ, my life, my power,
I can abuse Thy grace no more.
