By Night When Others Soundly Slept<\/strong><\/p>\n

By night when others soundly slept<\/span>
\n<\/span>And hath at once both ease and Rest,<\/span>
\n<\/span>My waking eyes were open kept<\/span>
\n<\/span>And so to lie I found it best.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I sought him whom my Soul did Love,<\/span>
\n<\/span>With tears I sought him earnestly.<\/span>
\n<\/span>He bow’d his ear down from Above.<\/span>
\n<\/span>In vain I did not seek or cry.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>My hungry Soul he fill’d with Good;<\/span>
\n<\/span>He in his Bottle put my tears,<\/span>
\n<\/span>My smarting wounds washt in his blood,<\/span>
\n<\/span>And banisht thence my Doubts and fears.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>What to my Saviour shall I give<\/span>
\n<\/span>Who freely hath done this for me?<\/span>
\n<\/span>I’ll serve him here whilst I shall live<\/span>
\n<\/span>And Loue him to Eternity.<\/span><\/p>\n
