-:1.Now shall my inward joys arise,
-:And burst into a song;
-:Almighty love inspires my heart,
-:And pleasure tunes my tongue.
-:2.God on his thirsty Zion hill
-:Some mercy drops has thrown,
-:And solemn oaths have bound his love
-:To shower salvation down.
-:3.Why do we then indulge our fears,
-:Suspicions, and complaints?
-:Is he a God, and shall his grace
-:Grow weary of his saints?
-:4.Can a kind woman e'er forget
-:The infant of her womb?
-:And 'mongst a thousand tender thoughts
-:Her suckling have no room?
-:5."Yet," saith the Lord, "should nature change,
-:And mothers monsters prove,
-:Zion still dwells upon the heart
-:Of everlasting love.
-:6."Deep on the palms of both my hands
-:I have engraved her name;
-:My hands shall raise her ruined walls,
-:And build her broken frame?"
