Psalm CXLIX.

1

New Songs of Praise for Mercies new,

Mid'st Saints assembled sing,

2

Joy in thy Maker, Israel, shew,

And, Zion, in thy King.

329

3

Extol the Lord, ye sacred Quire,

With Pipes sound forth his Praise,
On the sweet Timbrel, and the Lyre,
To Heav'n his Glory raise.

4

The Lord do's Pleasure and Delight

In his own People take,
The Humble, by his saving Might,
He do's Illustrious make.

5

Let all thy Saints, O Lord our King,

In Glory gain'd rejoyce,
And on their Beds aloud to sing
Let them exalt their Voice.

6

Be in their Mouths high Praise, a Sword

Two-edg'd be in their Hands,

7

That Wrath on Heathens may be pour'd,

And Vengeance on the Lands.

8

That they may bind their Kings and Lords,

With the led Captive's Chain,
In Iron Links, and servile Cords,
Their Potentates restrain.

9

These with the Judgments to pursue,

Which sacred Books record,
Is to the Saints the Honour due;
Ye People, praise the Lord.

As the CXIIIth.

1

Praise ye and glorify the Lord,

Let him for ever be ador'd;
And mid'st the Saints assembled sing,
New Songs of Praise, for Mercies new;

2

Joy in thy Maker, Israel, shew,

And, Zion, triumph in thy King.

3

Extol the Lord, ye sacred Quire,

On the sweet Timbrel and the Lyre,
And with soft Pipes sound forth his Praise;

330

4

God in his People takes Delight,

He'll rescue by his saving Might
The Meek, and them to Honour raise.

5

Triumph ye Saints, with cheerful Voice,

With Shouts for Glory won rejoyce,
And on your Beds express your Joy;

6

Be in your Mouths Hymns to the Lord,

And in your Hands a Two-edg'd Sword,

7

Your Foes, the Heathen to destroy.

8

To bind their Potentates with Chains,

In Iron Links their noble Trains,
And pour on Aliens Wrath decreed;

9

The Saints shall this great Honour have

To quell their Foes, and Zion save.
Praise ye the Lord, O Jacob's Seed.
