Let all the ifles with facred mirth,
In his applaufe unite their voice.

2. You who to ferve this Lord afpire,
Abhor what's ill, and truth efteem;
He'll keep his fervants fouts intire,

And them from wicked hands redeem. 3. For feeds are fown of glorious light, A future harvest for the just; And gladness for the heart that's right, To recompenfe its pious truft.

4. Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord;
Memorials of his holiness,

Deep in your faithful breafts record,
And with your thankful tongues confefs.

Who wond'rous things has done;

With his right-hand and holy arm

Into the concert bring

The trumpet and fhrill cornet's found,
Before th' Almighty King.

Who does with juftice come,
And, with impartial equity,
Both to reward and doom.

PSALM 99.

EHOVAH reigns: let therefore all
The guilty nations quake;

On cherubs wings he fits enthron'd:
Let earth's foundation fhake.

2. On Sion's hill he keeps his court,
His palace makes her tow'rs;
Yet thence his fov'reignty extends
Supreme o'er earthly pow'rs.

3. Let therefore all with praife addrefs.
His great and dreadful name;
And with his unrefifted might,
His holiness proclaim.

4. Therefore exalt the Lord our God,
Before his footftool fall;
And with his unrefifted might,
His holiness extol.

WITH one confent let all the earth, To God their chearful voices raife; Glad homage pay with awful mirth, And fing before him fongs of praise. 2. Convinc'd that he is God alone, From whom both we and all proceed; We, whom he chufes for his own,

The flock which he vouchsafes to feed.

3. O enter then his temple gate,

Thence to his courts devoutly prefs; And still your grateful hymns repeat, And still his name with praises bless.

4. For he's the Lord, fupremely good,
His mercy is for ever sure;

His truth, which always firmly stood,
To endless ages fhall endure.

Him ferve with fear, his praife forth-tell,
Come ye before him and rejoice.

Without our aid he did us make;
We are his flock, he doth us feed,
And for his fheep he doth us take.

3. O enter then his gates with praise,
Approach with joy his courts unto;
Praife, laud, and bless his name always,
For it is feemly fo to do.

4. For why? The Lord our God is good, His mercy is for ever fure;

His truth at all times firmly ftood,
And shall from age to age endure.

PSALM 103.

MY foul, infpir'd with facred love,

God's holy name for ever blefs;

Of all his favours mindful prove,
And ftill thy grateful thanks exprefs.
2. The Lord abounds with tender love,
And unexampled acts of grace;
His waken'd wrath does flowly move,
His willing mercy flows apace.

3. As high as heav'n its arch extends
Above this little spot of clay;
So much his boundless love tranfcends
The small refpects that we can pay.
4. As far as 'tis from east to west,
So far has he our fins remov'd,
Who with a father's tender breaft,
Has fuch as fear'd him always lov'd.
