It is Thy title, Lord, and only Thine, that Thou givest " songs in the night. " (Job xxxv. 10. ) 1 Ps. Xvii. 15.
126 BISHOP HALL.
The night is a sad and dolorous season ; as the light, contrarily, is the image of cheerfulness. (Eccl. Xi. 7. ) Like as it is in bodily pains and aches, that they are still worst towards night; so it is in the cares and griefs of the mind ; then they assault us most when they are helped on by the advantage of an uncomfortable darkness. Many men can give themselves s...ongs in the day of their prosperity, who can but howl in the night of their affliction ; but for a Paul and Silas to sing in their prison at midnight (Acts xvi. 25) ; for an Asaph to " call to remembrance his song in the night " (Ps. Ixxvii. 6) ; this comes only from that Spirit of Thine, whose peculiar style is " the Com- forter ;" and surely, as music sounds best in the night, so those heavenly notes of praise which we sing to Thee, our God, in the gloomy darkness of our adversity, cannot but be most pleasing in Thine ears.
