[_]

Sing this as the 13. Song.

1

Oh, thou Lord, thou God of might,
(Who dost all things worke aright)
Whatsoe're is done by thee,
Great and wondrous prooues to be.

2

True thy waies are, and direct,
Holy King, of Saints elect.
And (oh therefore) who is there,
That of thee, retaines no feare?

3

Who is there that shall deny,
Thy great Name to glorifie?
For thou Lord, and thou alone,
Art the perfect Holy-One:

4

In thy presence, Nations all
Shall to adoration fall.
For, thy iudgments now appeare,
Vnto all men what they are.
Here end the Hymnes of the New Testament.
