Let God arise, and then his foes
will turn themselves to flight;
His enemies for fear shall run,
and scatter out of sight.
And as wax melts before the fire,
and wind blows smoke away,
So in the presence of the Lord
the wicked shall decay.
But righteous men before the Lord
shall heartily rejoice;
They shall be glad and merry all,
and cheerful in their voice.
Sing praise, sing praise unto the Lord,
who rideth on the sky:
Extol the great Jehovah's Name,
and him still magnify.
The same is he that is above
within his holy place,
That Father is of fatherless,
and Judge of widows' case.
Houses and issue both he gives
unto the comfortless,
He bringeth bondmen out of thrall,
and rebels to distress.
When thou didst march before thy folk
th' Egyptians from among,
And brought'st them thro' the wilderness,
which was both wide and long,
The earth did shake, the heav'ns did drop,
great thunder-claps were heard,
Mount Sinai also movèd was,
when Israel's God appeared.
Thy heritage with drops of rain
abundantly was washed;
And if so be it barren was,
by thee it was refreshed.
Thy chosen flock doth there remain,
thou hast prepared that place;
And for the poor thou dost provide
of thy especial grace.
