Acts 7:6: God spake... That his seed should sojourn in a, Sfc

In sin I long have dwelt
The wretched slave of man,
My guilty burden felt,
With Satan's galling chain;
By cruel taskmasters oppress'd,
Far from the land of gospel rest.

Estranged alas from God,
The God of pardoning grace,
I tremble at the rod,
Yet serve the' Egyptian race;
Repeat my melancholy moan,
And in the iron furnace groan.
