Part of Hannahs Song, 1 Sam. 2.

[_]

[as 100th Psalm.]

1

My heart doth in Jehovah joy,
My Horn in Jah is lift on high;
My Mouth's inlarged o'er my Foes,
In thy Salvation joy will I.

2

There's none so Holy as the Lord,
No, no, there is none beside thee
Of other Rocks, there is not one;
That to our God compar'd may be.

11

3

Talk ye no more so Proudly then,
Let not Arrogancy once proceed
Out of your Mouth, for God doth know,
And 'tis by him Actions are weigh'd.

4

The Lord both Poor and Rich does make,
He raiseth up and pulleth down;
Thee Poor he up from Dust does take,
And Beggars from the Dunghil Crown.

5

And sets them on a Princely Throne,
In Glorious Power and Dignity;
The Pillars of the Earth's the Lords,
The World is his, him Glorifies.

6

He keeps the feet of all his Saints,
Preserves them so they shall not fail,
The Vile in darkness shall be still,
For no man shall by strength prevail.

7

The Adversaries of the Lord,
Shall broken be both great and small;
The Lord from Heaven Thunder will,
And in his Wrath destroy them all,

8

The Lord shall Reign most Gloriously,
Unto the ends of all the Earth:
And his Anointed Horn exalt,
Therefore his highest Praise sing forth.
