- The Lord doth reign, although at it
- the people rage full sore:
- Yea, he on Cherubims doth sit
- though all the world do roar.
-
- 2 The Lord that doth in Zion dwell,
- is high and wondrous great:
- Above all folk he doth excel,
- and he aloft is set.
-
- 3 Let all men praise thy mighty name,
- for it is fearful sure:
- And let them magnify the same,
- that holy is and pure.
-
- 4 The Princely power of our king
- doth love judgment and right:
- Thou rightly rulest everything
- in Jacob through thy might.
-
- 5 To praise the Lord our God devise,
- all honor to him do:
- His footstool worship him before,
- for he is holy too.
-
- 6 Moses, Aaron and Samuel,
- as Priests on him did call:
- When they did pray, he heard them well,
- and gave them answer all.
-
- 7 Within the cloud to them he spake,
- then did they labor still:
- To keep such laws as he did make
- and ‘ppointed them until,
-
- 8 O Lord our God thou didst them hear,
- and answerest them again:
- Thy mercy did on them appear,
- their deeds didst not maintain.
-
- 9 O laud and praise our Lord and God,
- within his holy hill:
- For why? our God throughout the world
- is holy ever still.
