Words of Trust.

The following words of trust, says a writer in the United Presbyterian, were recited often by the Huguenots of France during the days of their bitter persecution:—

“If perish we must under thy justice, we shall perish adoring thee. Thy wrath; would it extinguish us? Then we shall flee to thy heart. Is extermination thy design for us? We shall make that new cause to fear thee. In spite of ills, in spite of death, we shall bless the stroke thy hand applies. They are the blows of a tempest, but they bring us into port.”

But they that trust in the Lord “shall not be confounded.”
