Micah 7:8: Forbear, my foe, thy triumph vain

Forbear, my foe, thy triumph vain:
Shouldst thou again my soul surprise,
I shall by all my losses gain,
And stronger from my falls arise;
And thoLigli I may in darkness mourn,
As banish'd from my Father's sight,
I soon shall see my Lord return
In glorious everlasting light.

500. I will bear the indignation of the Lord, &c. — vii. Qj
Scourged for my sin, the frown of God
In patient silence I abide,
Till Jesus pleads for me His blood.
And turns His Father's wrath aside:
He then shall finish my distress.

Our common foes for ever slay.
And show my heart His righteousness,
And bring me to the perfect day.
