" Surely goodness ai \ d mercy shall follow me all the days of my life ^ arid I will dwell in the house of tile Lord for ever . * ' After making many observations 011 the character of God as our shepherd , he recommends to his hearers pious thankfulness ,
accompanied with submission to the dispensations of Providence and with " a habit of looking as muck as possible on the bright side of every object- " Speaking of the national distress , he is encouraged by the general ascendancy of a disposition to confide in tlxe LXivine Benevolence , and . s ay ^ ' li There are nations vhom calamities and losses such as have been ^ witntsfced in this country would have sunk in the
