Since disappointment and despair[00:00:00]

The vainness of al hopes declare[00:00:08]

Since toss'd upon this restless main[00:00:16]

I strive gainst wind and waves in vain[00:00:23]

The more I struggle for the shore[00:00:31]

Misfortunes overwhelm the more[00:00:39]

Then since I struggle to maintain[00:00:46]

And strive alas to live in vain[00:00:54]

I＇ll hope no more since prov'd and tried[00:01:02]

The feeble light she once supplied[00:01:10]

Resembled but a taper's ray[00:01:17]

That only burns to die away[00:01:25]

And leave one lost in endless night[00:01:33]

My follies but exposed to sight[00:01:40]

Then come misfortunes as you will[00:01:48]

Oppressions sink we lower still[00:01:56]

Haste keen despair and urge my doom[00:02:04]

And all that haunt the wretched come[00:02:11]

Fate from my heart all fears expunge[00:02:19]

I stand resolv'd to take the plunge[00:02:27]

Oh thou great Being who resides[00:02:35]

Far above where yon ether glides[00:02:42]

Whose power almighty piercing eye[00:02:50]

Marks all on earth in air and sky[00:02:58]

Who oft such care we ought to praise[00:03:06]

This sand grain call'd a world surveys[00:03:13]

Nor deems unworthy of thy care[00:03:21]

Vain men as worthless as we are[00:03:29]

Wh ooft with liberal hands bestows[00:03:37]

Thy guiding mercy here below[00:03:44]

And while our sins so multiply[00:03:52]

Like mountains heap'd before thee lie[00:04:00]

So loath so tempted to chastize[00:04:08]

And then to bless us in disguise[00:04:15]

To disappoint our restless schemes[00:04:23]

Our airy hopes and foolish dreams[00:04:31]

Is but to prove the empty shew[00:04:39]

Or painting happiness below[00:04:46]

Oh thou that hears the wretched call[00:04:54]

Thou universal friend to all[00:05:02]
