Who made you gods on high, To hear his call,..
Or cherubim,
Or feraphim, Ye angels all.

4 Ye heav'ns of heav'ns, fo high! High hallelujahs found;
Ye floods above the sky, Convey the echo round: He faid the word, And then they were Created fair,
To praise the Lord:

Sweet influence,
By night and day!
Thou earth, and deep abyfs, With all thy monflers, rise; Roar, dragons,-ferpents, hifs, In chorus with the skies:
Fire, bail, and fnow,
And ftormy wind,
And vapours kind,
Rain, fwift or flow;
All ye, his holy will,
Are taught to know and do:
9 Each mountain, rock, and hill, With fhrub, or cedar, bow: Beafts, cattle all,
Each creeping thing, And bird of wing, All, lowly fall.
11 Kings of the earth, adore, And this your King obey; Low in the duft, before His feet, your fceptres lay: Ye people all, Prince, judge, or lord, Before THE WORD
INCARNATE, fall.
12 Young men, and maidens fair, O praife him in your fongs,
Who made you what you are; Your love to him belongs:
Be full of praife,
And teach your babes To lifp his ways.
13 Let all that be advance The name of JESUS high; His works his praife enhance Above the earth`and sky:
His name alone
Is glorious,
Victorious,
Th' ETERNAL SON!

A people near pas To God, and dear, y
Praife, praise him, thou!"
Redeemed by your Saviour's blood, Arife ye faints, and hail your God? Four bodies from the duft shall rife, And fhine like funs above the fkies
SING hallelujah to the Lord,
And raife new fongs with one accord,
O praife in your affembly, ftill, The Lord who dwells on Zion-hill... 2 Let Ifra'l in his Maker joy,... And in his praise his heart employ; Let Zion's children, joyful, bring Their fongs of praife to Chrift their King 3 Let them with joy to him advance, And hail their King with holy dance; With pleasant harp and timbrel's found,. Let all the temple echo round:
Behold the temple's glory come! The God of glory fills the dome! Arife and fhine, O Zion, now! Meffiah comes to pay his vow!
4 Meffiah loves his people all;
He loves them now, and ever fhall; His hand the meek fhall raife on high, And with falvation beautify:
5 He'll make his faints eternally, In glory, reign with him on high, Ev'n while they fleep on beds of daft, Their fpirits fing among the juft: 6 But when they rife, O joyful day! Their refurrection fhall difplay The glory which cannot be told! The glory which we hall behold! The praifes high of God, their King, They in their mouth aloud shall fing: Their hands fhall wield a two-edg'd fword, The mighty word of God the Lord;
7 To execute the vengeance due On all the lewd, ungodly crew, Who trampled on the Son of God, And vilify'd his facred blood;
8 To bind their kings with weighty chains, And fill their loins with heavy pains; To fetter their proud nobles down, Who rofe and raged against THE SON;
9 To fit in judgment with the Lord, And judge them by the written word: This prize have all the faints of God ! High hallelujah's found aloud!
