HYMN 48. Salvation Shining.

1

O sing ye now unto the Lord,
a new and pleasant Song;
For he hath wrought by his Right Hand;
to him doth Praise belong.

2

Salvation is, Lord, wrought by Thee,
from Sin from Wrath and Hell;
O sing to God continually,
all who in Sion dwell!

3

'Tis thee, O Lord, we will exalt,
and spread thy Glory forth.
For thy Right Hand hast Wonders done
For us, who dwell on Earth:

4

Our Enemies that are within,
thou hast, O Lord, brought down;
Our Foes also, that are without,
by Thee, are overthrown.

5

Ye Righteous in the Lord rejoyce,
his Holiness proclaim;
Be thankful, and with Heart and Voice
sing to his glorious Name:

6

For why, the Lord our God is good,
and he has heard our cry?
Since on our side, Lord thou hast stood,
let's praise thee till we Die.
