English poem
Second PART
by John Barnard (1815–1882)
I'll to thy House, with Off'rings, go; And Thee my Vows will pay: Which my Lips utter'd, and Mouth spoke, When Troubles on me lay. I'll offer Thee burnt Sacrifice, The very best that are; The Fat of Rams, the choicest Bulls, And Goats, I will prepare. Come, hear, all ye that fear the Lord; To you I will make known, The many wondrous Acts of Grace, The Lord, for me hath done. My Mouth, to him that rules above, Pour'd out it's fervent Cry; He heard; and then my joyful Tongue Extol'd his Name on high. God would not hear; if in my Heart, I any Sin regard: But, verily, he bow'd his Ear, And all my Pray'r hath heard. O blessed be the sov'reign Lord, Who hath not turn'd his Face From my Request; nor yet with-held, From me his wondrous Grace.
