Shewe vs thy glorious Face

Selah.


That, all the world, thy waies may knowe,
And, see thy saving-grace.

Let all men give thee praise;
Let all sing praise to thee:
Let nations all sing out thy praise,
For, thou their Iudge must be.

God, is the Nations kinge,

Selah.


Let Nations all therefore,
Let Nations all, vnto him sing,

And praise him ever more.

Then earth shall give encrease;
And, God, whose Folke wee are,
That God, shall vs vouchsafe to blesse,
And, him, the world shall fear.
