Lyrics: Isaac Watts
Tune: Supply Belcher
Meter: L.M.D. (8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8)

Lord, what a thoughtless wretch was I,
To mourn and murmur and repine,
To see the wicked placed on high,
In pride and robes of honor shine.
But O their end, their dreadful end,
Thy sanctuary taught me so:
On slipp'ry rocks I see them stand,
And fi'ry billows roll below.
