How happy is the Christian's state!

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #CIX (1789) Lyrics: 1 How happy is the Christian's state! His sins are all forgiven; A cheering ray confirms the grace, And lifts his hopes to heaven. 2 Though in the rugged path of life He heaves the pensive sigh, Yet, trusting in his God, he finds, Delivering grace is nigh. 3 If to prevent his wandering steps He feels the chastening rod, The gentle stroke shall bring him back To his forgiving God.
