The Song of Zacharias.
1
Let Jsrael's great God and Kingeternally be Bless'd,
Whose come from Heav'n to visit us,
and see our bonds, releas'd.
2
In Davids House a Saviour's rais'd,to sit upon his throne;
This ever since the World began,
his Prophets have foreshown.
3
That he would save us from the Pow'rand Malice of our Foes;
The Mercy to perform to them,
which he of old had chose.
7
4
He call'd to mind how he engag'dhis truth, by Covenant,
His Solemn Oath to Abraham sworn,
that he his Grace would grant
5
To serve him without fear; from allour Adversaries freed;
And to continue all our days,
a Holy Life to lead.
6
By the Remission of our Sins,to make Salvation known,
To all his People every where,
his tender Mercy's shown.
7
The Day-Star from on high is rose,and those who also sit
In Darkness, he in the right way
of Peace will guide their Feet.
