To thy great pow'r thy stubborn foes
Shall all be forc'd to bow.

3 Thro' all the earth the nations round Shall see their God confess;

And with glad hymns their awful dread
Of thy great name express.

4 O come, behold the works of God,
And then with me you'll own
That he to all the sons of men
Has wondrous judgments shown.

10 Come, all

ᏢᎪᎡᎢ 2.

Come, all ye that fear the Lord
Attend with heedful care;

Whilst I, what God for me has done,
With grateful joy declare.

2 As I before his aid implor'd,
So now I praise his Name;
Who, if my heart had harbour'd sin,
Would all my pray'rs disclaim.

3 But God to me, whene'er I cry'd,
His gracious ear did bend;
And to the voice of my request
With constant love attend.

4 Then bless'd for ever be my God,
Who never, when I pray,
Withholds his mercy from my soul,
Nor turns his face away.

1 YE

PSALM 66. OLD VERSION.

E men on earth, in God rejoice,
With praise set forth his Name;
Exalt his might with heart and voice,
Give glory to the same.

2 How wonderful, O Lord, say ye,
In all thy works thou art!
Thy foes for fear shall seek to thee,
Full sore against their heart.

3 All men that dwell the earth throughout
Shall praise the Name of God;
The laud whereof the world about
Is shew'd and set abroad.

4 All folk come forth, behold and see,
What things the Lord hath wrought;
Mark well the wond'rous works that he
For men to pass hath brought.

PSALM 67.

1 TO bless thy chosen race,
In mercy, Lord, incline;

And cause the brightness of thy face
On all thy saints to shine:

2 That so thy wondrous ways

May through the world be known, Whilst distant lands their tribute pay, And thy salvation own.

3 Let diff'ring nations join

To celebrate thy fame;

Let all the world, O Lord, combine
To praise thy glorious Name.

4 O let them shout and sing
With joy and pious mirth,

For thou, the righteous Judge and King, Shalt govern all the earth.

5 Let diff"ring nations join
To celebrate thy fame;

Let all the world, O Lord combine
To praise thy glorious Name.

6 Then shall the teeming ground
A large increase disclose;

And we with plenty shall be crown'd,
Which God, our God, bestows.

PSALM 68.

1

то God your voice in anthems raise,

Jehovah's awful name he bears;
In him rejoice, extol his praise
Who rides upon high rolling spheres.

2 Him, from his empire of the skies,
To this low world compassion draws,
The orphan's claim to patronize,
And judge the injur'd widow's cause.

3 For benefits each day bestow'd,
Be daily his great Name ador'd;
Who is our Saviour and our God,
Of life and death the sov'reign Lord.

4 To Father, Son, and Holy-Ghost, All praise and glory be therefore ; As in beginning was, is now,

1

And so shall be for evermore.

IN

PSALM 71

N thee I put my stedfast trust,
Defend me, Lord, from shame :
Incline thine ear, and save my soul,
For righteous is thy name.

2 Thy righteous acts and saving health
My mouth shall still declare;
Unable yet to count them all,
Though summ'd with utmost care.

3 Thou, Lord, hast taught me from my youth
To praise thy glorious Name:
And ever since, thy wond'rous works
Have been my constant theme.

4 Therefore with psaltery and harp
Thy truth, O Lord, I'll praise;
To thee, the God of Jacob's race,
My voice in anthems raise.

1

Lo

PSALM 72.

ORD, let thy just decrees the King
In all his ways direct;

And let his son, throughout his reign,
Thy righteous laws respect.

2 So shall he still thy people judge
With pure and upright mind:

Whilst all the helpless poor shall him
Their just protector find.

3 In his blest days the just and good
Shall be with favour crown'd;
The happy land shall every where
With endless peace abound.

4 Let earth be with his glory fill'd;
And ever bless his name;
Whilst to his praise the list'ning world
Their glad assent proclaim.

PSALM 73.

1 YET still God's presence me supply'd, And his right hand assistance gave:

Thou Lord shalt with thy counsel guide, And then to glory me receive.

2 Whom then in heav'n, but thee alone,
Have I whose favour I require ?
Throughout the spacious earth there's none
That I besides thee can desire.

3 For they that far from thee remove,
Shall into sudden ruin fall;
If after other gods they rove,

Thy vengeance shall destroy them all.

4 But as for me, 'tis good and just That I should still to God repair;

In him I always put my trust,

And will his wondrous works declare.
