Blest Be the Name of Jacob's God    

1) Blest be the name of Jacob's God,
whose love, in happiest hour bestow'd,
has giv'n within my lot to fall
the strong built city's guarding wall,
the strong built city's guarding wall.

2) A while with uncollected mind,
as banish'd from thy fight, I pin'd;
but thou thy servant's pray'r hast heard,
in anguish of my heart preferr'd,
in anguish of my heart preferr'd.

3) Ye souls, devoted to his fear,
with thankful love your God revere;
who wakes your chosen train to guard,
and deals to pride its just reward,
and deals to pride its just reward.

4) Be strong, be stedfast; so your mind
from him its full support shall find,
ye faints, that in his care confide,
nor own, nor ask, a help beside,
nor own, nor ask, a help beside.
