The Book of Praise.
He rules the World with truth and grace.
And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love.
Isaac Watts. 1709.
XLV.
Thus saith God of His Anointed;
He shall let My people go ; 'Tis the work for Him appointed,
'Tis the work that He shall do ; And My city He shall found, and build it too.
He whom man with scorn refuses, Whom the favoured nation hates,
He it is Jehovah chooses,
Him the highest place awaits ; Kings and princes
Shall do homage at His gates.
He shall humble all the scorners, He shall fill His foes with shame j
He shall raise and comfort mourners By the sweetness of His Name ; To the captives
He shall liberty proclaim.
He shall gather those that wander'ct;
When they hear the trumpet's sound, They shall join the sacred standard, They shall come and flock around ;
He shall save them, They shall be with glory crown'd.
T/wmas Kelly. 1809. |
