Psalm CXVIII.
Give Thanks to God, for He is Good,
His Promises are sure,
His Mercy, which has firmly stood,
For ever shall endure.
Let Israel say, his Faithfulness
For ever is secure;
Let Aaron's House aloud confess
His Mercies still endure.
His Promises are sure,
His Mercy, which has firmly stood,
For ever shall endure.
262
For ever is secure;
Let Aaron's House aloud confess
His Mercies still endure.
Let all, by whom the Lord is fear'd,
Declare his Mercy's sure;
As they in all Times firm appear'd,
They ever shall endure.
Distress'd I cry'd, the Lord did hear,
And to enlarge me flew;
Since God is for me, shall I fear?
What is it Man can do?
Declare his Mercy's sure;
As they in all Times firm appear'd,
They ever shall endure.
Distress'd I cry'd, the Lord did hear,
And to enlarge me flew;
Since God is for me, shall I fear?
What is it Man can do?
The mighty Lord takes Part with those,
Who are for me combin'd;
Hence my Desire upon my Foes
Accomplish'd I shall find.
On God 'tis better to rely,
Than Troops in Battle try'd;
To Him in Streights you safer fly;
Than you in Kings confide.
Who are for me combin'd;
Hence my Desire upon my Foes
Accomplish'd I shall find.
On God 'tis better to rely,
Than Troops in Battle try'd;
To Him in Streights you safer fly;
Than you in Kings confide.
All Nations did combin'd agree
To compass me around;
But whilst I put my Trust in Thee,
I shall my Foes confound.
Around the Nations compass'd me,
They compass'd me around,
But whilst I put my Trust in Thee,
I shall my Foes confound.
To compass me around;
But whilst I put my Trust in Thee,
I shall my Foes confound.
Around the Nations compass'd me,
They compass'd me around,
But whilst I put my Trust in Thee,
I shall my Foes confound.
263
Part II.
Sore was I push'd by threat'ning Foes,
But God did Succour bring;
From God, my Strength, Salvation flows,
Hence I'll his Praises sing.
The Just raise Shouts of Victory,
Renown'd is God's Right-hand;
The Lord's Right-hand do's valiantly,
And Conquest still command.
But God did Succour bring;
From God, my Strength, Salvation flows,
Hence I'll his Praises sing.
The Just raise Shouts of Victory,
Renown'd is God's Right-hand;
The Lord's Right-hand do's valiantly,
And Conquest still command.
I shall not dye, but live to be
In praising God employ'd;
He has severely chasten'd me,
But not in Wrath destroy'd.
Open the Gates of Righteousness,
That I may enter there,
And to the Lord due Thanks express,
And offer Praise and Pray'r.

He has severely chasten'd me,
But not in Wrath destroy'd.
Open the Gates of Righteousness,
That I may enter there,
And to the Lord due Thanks express,
And offer Praise and Pray'r.
Part III.
The Stone, the Builders have in Scorn
Rejected, as unfit,
As Head the Corner do's adorn,
And fast the Structure knit.
This great Design by God was laid,
'Tis wond'rous in our Eyes;
Let us this Day, which he has made,
In Triumph solemnize.
Rejected, as unfit,
As Head the Corner do's adorn,
And fast the Structure knit.
264
'Tis wond'rous in our Eyes;
Let us this Day, which he has made,
In Triumph solemnize.
Now let us thy Salvation see,
We Thee beseech, O Lord,
And send us that Prosperity,
Which we have now implor'd.
O bless'd be He, who in the Name
Of God comes full of Grace;
We Priests his People blest proclaim,
From God's most holy Place.
We Thee beseech, O Lord,
And send us that Prosperity,
Which we have now implor'd.
O bless'd be He, who in the Name
Of God comes full of Grace;
We Priests his People blest proclaim,
From God's most holy Place.
