The Traveller's Psalm

Author: Addison Hymnal: SHBA1792 #XXXVI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Addison First Line: How are thy servant's bless'd, O Lord Lyrics: 1 How are thy servants bless'd, O Lord! How sure is their defence! Eternal Wisdom is their guide, Their help Omnipotence. 2 In foreign realms, and lands remote, Supported by thy care, Thro' burning climes they pass unhurt, And breathe in tainted air. 3 When, by the dreadful tempest borne, High on the broken wave, They know thou art not slow to hear, Nor impotent to save. 4 The storm is laid, the winds retire, Obedient to thy will: The sea, that roars at thy command, At thy command is still. 5 In 'midst of dangers, fears, and deaths, Thy goodness we'll adore, We'll praise thee for thy mercies past, And humbly hope for more. 6 Our life, while thou preserv'st that life, Thy sacrifice shall be; And death, when death shall be our lot, Shall join our souls to thee.
