-<poem>
-I'll trust God's word, and so despise
-the force that man can raise;
-To thee, O God, my vows are due;
-to thee I'll render praise.
-Thou hast retriev’d my soul from death
-and thou will still secure
-The life thou hast so oft preserv’d
-and make my footsteps sure;
-That thus protected, by thy pow’r,
-I may this light enjoy:
-And in the service of my God
-my lengthen’d days employ.
-</poem>
