Psalms 116:3. The sorrows of death compassed me,
They were all round me. They made a circle. I could not find a break. They compassed me. Sorrows, deadly sorrows, the very sorrows of death.
Psalms 116:3. And the pains of hell gat hold upon me:
They came inside the circle and they gripped me. I was like one that did lie under the lion. He seemed to bite and tear me. "The pains of hell gat hold upon me." Did you ever know that? I did. Oh! I can never forget, for the scars are in my mind to this day when the pains of hell gat hold upon me. They say that there is no hell. He will never say that who has ever felt the pains of a guilty conscience - the pangs of unforgiven sin to a soul that is made alive by the Spirit of God. "The pains of hell gat hold upon me."
Psalms 116:3. I found trouble and sorrow.
An unexpected find. They were hidden away - these double enemies - hidden away beneath my pleasures, beneath my sins, beneath my self-righteousness. "I found trouble and sorrow."
