Moses's Song, on Exod. 15.

1. [The first part.]

1

I to the Lord, will sing,
Triumph in him also;
The Horses and the Riders he
Into the Sea did throw.

2

Jehovah is my Song,
And my Salvation;
My God, for whom I will prepare
An Habitation:

3

My Father's God was he,
Whose Glory I'll proclaim,
Jehovah is a Man of War,
Jehovah is his Name.

4

Proud Pharoah, and his Host,
Into the Sea are cast,
And his great Captains drowned be,
As through the Sea they past.

5

They down to th'bottom sank,
Ev'n like unto a Stone;
Jehovah thy Right Hand in Pow'r,
Most Glorious is become:

6

Thy Right Hand hath destroy'd
Those that against thee rose;

2

And in thy Glorious Excellency,
Thou hast o'erthrown thy Foes.

2. The second Part.

1

Thou didst send forth thy Wrath,
Like stubble them to waste,
Lord, thou didst blow, and the proud Waves,
O'erwhelm'd them with a Blast.

2

The Sea stood up in heaps
For Israel, (on each side)
The Enemy said, I will pursue,
I will the Spoil divide?

3

My Lust I will fulfill,
My Sword draw out will I?
My Hand shall now cut them all off,
And Ruin utterly?

4

Thou with thy Wind didst blow,
And they were covered,
They in the Mighty Waters sunk,
As if they had been Lead.

5

Lord, who is like to Thee,
In Holiness Glor'us,
Fearful in Praise, and also doth
Things that are marvellous.
