[Verse]
AmSince disappointment and deCmaj7spair
AmThe vainness of al hopes deCmaj7clare
AmSince toss'd upon this restlessCmaj7 main
AmI strive 'gainst wind and waves inCmaj7 vain
AmThe more I struggle for the Cmaj7shore
AmMisfortunes overwhelm the mCmaj7ore
AmThen since I struggle to maCmaj7intain
AmAnd strive alas to live in Cmaj7vain
AmI'll hope no more--since prov'd andCmaj7 tried
AmThe feeble light she once sCmaj7upplied
AmResembled but a taper's Cmaj7ray
AmThat only burns to die awCmaj7ay
AmAnd leave one lost in endless Cmaj7night
Am(My follies but exposed to sCmaj7ight)
AmThen come misfortunes as youCmaj7 will
AmOppressions sink we lower sCmaj7till
AmHaste keen despair and urge mCmaj7y doom
AmAnd all that haunt the wretchedCmaj7 come
AmFate from my heart all fears eCmaj7xpunge
AmI stand resolv'd to take the Cmaj7plunge
AmOh thou great Being who resCmaj7ides
AmFar above where yon ether gCmaj7lides
AmWhose power almighty pierciCmaj7ng eye
AmMarks all on earth in air andCmaj7 sky
AmWho oft (such care we ought toCmaj7 praise)
AmThis sand-grain call'd a world Cmaj7surveys
AmNor deems unworthy of thy cCmaj7are
AmVain men as worthless as weCmaj7 are
AmWh ooft with liberal hands Cmaj7bestows
AmThy guiding mercy here bCmaj7elow
AmAnd while our sins so multiCmaj7ply
AmLike mountains heap'd before theCmaj7e lie
AmSo loath - so tempted to chCmaj7astize
AmAnd then to bless us in disCmaj7guise
AmTo disappoint our restless sCmaj7chemes
AmOur airy hopes and foolish dCmaj7reams
AmIs but to prove the empty sCmaj7hew
AmOr painting happiness Cmaj7below
AmOh thou that hears the wretchedCmaj7 call
AmThou universal friend to all...
