Courage and perseverance under persecution. <br /> <br />ver. 143, 28 <br /> <br />When pain and anguish seize me, Lord, <br />All my support is from thy word: <br />My soul dissolves for heaviness; <br />Uphold me with thy strength'ning grace. <br /> <br />ver. 51,69,110 <br /> <br />The proud have framed their scoffs and lies, <br />They watch my feet with envious eyes, <br />And tempt my soul to snares and sin, <br />Yet thy commands I ne'er decline. <br /> <br />ver. 161,78 <br /> <br />They hate me, Lord, without a cause, <br />They hate to see me love thy laws; <br />But I will trust and fear thy name, <br />Till pride and malice die with shame.<br /><br />Isaac Watts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/psalm-119-part-17/
