Complainer
( I set myself against the Lord ; Of ev'ry preacher I'd complain ; With no professors could I join ; I thought they'd better keep at home ; Kindred and neighbors, all were bad ; The horrid loads of guilt and shame ; But there is balm in Gilead ; For Christ's free love's a boundless sea ; Now I can hear a child proclaim ; Glory to him, who gave his Son ; Come, saints, rejoice in Christ your King ; All those who do an int'rest gain )
Ingalls, Jeremiah (1764-1838) [ USA ]
