Title:     To God: An Anthem Sung In The Chapel At Whitehall Before The King
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

_Verse._ My God, I'm wounded by my sin,
And sore without, and sick within.
_Ver. Chor._ I come to Thee, in hope to find
Salve for my body and my mind.
_Verse._ In Gilead though no balm be found
To ease this smart or cure this wound,
_Ver. Chor._ Yet, Lord, I know there is with Thee
All saving health, and help for me.
_Verse._ Then reach Thou forth that hand of Thine,
That pours in oil, as well as wine,
_Ver. Chor._ And let it work, for I'll endure
The utmost smart, so Thou wilt cure.

[The end]
