Help and Health

"Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted in me? Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him for the HELP of His countenance... for I shall yet praise Him, who is the HEALTH of my countenance, and my God" (Psalm 42:5,11).

Why, my soul, are you cast down,
And why are you distressed?
You have God's smile, not His frown,
His help with which He blessed.

Why, my soul, are you cast down,
Since God has given grace?
His lovingkindness is your crown,
His health upon your face.
