I said, And raise me from among the dead: Thy word rebuk'd the pains I felt; Thy pard'ning love remov'd my guilt. 4 I will extol thee, Lord, on high: At thy command diseases fly: Who but a God can speak and save From the dark borders of the grave? 5 Thine anger but a moment stays; Thy love is life and length of days: Though grief and tears the night employ, The morning-star restores the joy.
