Had not the Lord been on our side,
may Israel now say;
Had not the Lord been on our side,
when men rose us to slay;
They had us swallow�d quick, when as
their wrath �gainst us did flame:
Waters had cover�d us, our soul
had sunk beneath the stream.
Then had the waters, swelling high,
over our soul made way.
Bless�d be the Lord, who to their teeth
us gave not for a prey.
Our soul�s escaped, as a bird
out of the fowler�s snare;
The snare asunder broken is,
and we escaped are.
Our sure and all-sufficient help
is in Jehovah�s name;
His name who did the heav�n create,
and who the earth did frame.
