Halelviah | ||
Hymn CV. For one that is promoted.
[_]
We may be made heedfull, and kept mindfull, hereby, from whom Promotion commeth: to what end we should effect it; and with what humility, and thankfulnesse we should possesse it.
Sing this as the 4. Psalme.
207
[1]
By his Endeavours no man mayHis own Preferment make;
Although, he both an Eastward-way,
And Westward-Courses take:
For, having used all his Art,
His longings to obtain;
His Pow'r, his Wisedome, and Desart,
Imploy'd may be in vain.
2
Ev'n Kings, who are those Hils, from whom,Promotion seems to flow;
And from whose Heights, most Honours come,
To those that are below;
Ev'n they, who (in supremest place)
Preferments use to give;
Can us, nor honour, or disgrace,
Till God vouchsafes them leave.
3
That, therefore, in this Place, I amWhereto, I, late was rais'd;
Who should, but God, from whom it came,
For that, by me be prais'd?
To whose renowne should I my Place,
And new-got pow'r imploy?
But unto His, by whose meer Grace,
This Favour, I enjoy?
4
Lord, give me wit, both to perceive,And heed (all times) to take,
That, I this Grace, did not receive,
For mine own Vertue sake:
Or, my Ambition to fulfill;
But rather, that I might
208
In doing things upright.
5
Let not my heart be puft with pride;Or, brutishly forget
By whom I have bin dignifi'd,
And, on this height am set:
But make me for it, ev'ry day,
So thankfull unto Thee,
That from things earthly climb I may,
To those that heav'nly be.
Halelviah | ||
