Verse 1
Let GOD, the Glorious GOD arise,
And scatter Evil with his Eyes,
And make his Foes before Him flee;
His angry Look the Rebels chase,
Who scornfully reject his Grace,
And hate th’ Incarnate Deity.
Arise the Lord of Earth and Heaven!
As Smoak before the Wind is driven,
So let them at his Presence fly
Dissolv’d, as Wax before the Fire,
Sinners shall feel his Flaming Ire,
And perish, and forever die.

Verse 2
But let the Saints with grateful Joy
Their happy Days for Him employ,
And triumph in his Saving Grace,
Vie with the Elder Sons of Light,
And walk exulting in his Sight,
And hymn his Everlasting Praise.
Sing unto GOD, his Praise proclaim
Extol the great Jehovah’s Name
Who rides upon the Stormy Sky:
His Name his Essence doth display,
Rejoice before th’ Eternal JAH,
The Lord most merciful, Most High.

Verse 3
A Father of the Fatherless;
The Widow in her sad Distress
Is sure to find a Friend in Him:
He every helpless Soul befriends,
To all his Servants condescends,
In Goodness as in Power Supream.
Poor des’late Souls He makes his own,
’Tis GOD collects them into One,
’Tis GOD that sets the Prisoners free,
But lets his Rebels feel their Chain
Till forc’d they own in Want and Pain
That Sin is perfect Misery.

Verse 4
When Thou, O Lord, didst greatly lead
Thy People from the Furnace freed,
From haughty Pharaoh’s Iron Yoke,
All Nature did its Lord confess,
Slow-marching thro’ the Wilderness,
And Earth and Heaven thy Presence shook.
Trembled the Earth before thy Frown,
The Heavens in Flakes of Fire dropt down,
The Sea dried up, the Mountains flow’d,
Sinai was mov’d with Sacred Awe,
And quak’d to hear the Fiery Law,
And groan’d to feel th’ Incumbent GOD.

Verse 5
Thou didst, O GOD, thy Blessing pour,
A plenteous Earth-reviving Shower,
Thy weary Israel’s Camp to chear,
Type of the Grace thro’ Christ bestow’d
Dropt from the Tutelary Cloud
The Promise of a Gospel-Year.
Still Thou art Israel’s sure Defence,
The Lot of thine Inheritance
Thou dost with Hosts of Angels guard,
Thou hast prepar’d the Gospel-Feast,
Hast for the Needy and Distrest
The Manna of thy Love prepar’d.

Verse 6
The Lord, the All-redeeming Lord
Sent forth his Everlasting Word,
His Word to save a World of Foes,
His Heralds spread the Joyful Sound,
And lo! thro’ all the Nations round
A Cloud of Witnesses arose.
Divinely struck with sudden Dread
Kings with their alien Armies fled,
And to weak Women left their Spoil;
The feeblest Souls that Jesus know,
Shall still the World and Sin o’rethrow
And all the Powers of Darkness foil.

Verse 7
Though ye among the Pots have been,
The sordid Slaves of Hell and Sin,
Yet soon the silver-pinion’d Dove
The purifying Grace shall shed,
The Wings of his Protection spread
And wrap you in his hallowing Love.
When GOD made bare his Arm in Fight,
And scatter’d Kings in Israel’s Right,
His Love’s Omnipotence to shew,
His People did his Name express,
Just in the Lord their Righteousness
And whiter than the Mountain-Snow.

Verse 8
His People are all just and clean,
Beyond the Reach of Earth and Sin
Their hidden Life is lodg’d above,
Freed from their Hellish Pharaoh’s Chain,
His People in his Church remain,
The Mountain of his Pardning Love.
Why ye ambitious Mountains, why
With Sion would ye vainly vie?
What Mountain can with Ours compare?
The Lord doth in his Church delight,
Majestick walks on Sion’s Height,
And daigns to dwell forever there.

Verse 9
Around his Church the Angels stand,
The countless Troops of his Command,
And GOD doth with his Chariots go,
(As when of old the Heavens He bow’d,)
Inshrines his Glory in a Cloud,
And rests on all his Saints below.
Thou, Jesus, art gone up on high,
Hast captive led Captivity,
The Powers that held our Souls in Chains;
Thy Blood hath sign’d our Soul’s Release
Pardon, and Liberty, and Peace
Thy pretious Blood for All obtains.

Verse 10
Thou hast receiv’d the Promis’d Grace,
For All of Adam’s helpless Race,
The glorious Gift unspeakable,
That All thine Image might retrieve,
That Man again in GOD might live,
That GOD again in Man might dwell.
Blest be the GOD of Pardning Love,
Who showers his Blessings from above,
And fills us with his richest Store,
The GOD of our Salvation, He
Redeems from All Iniquity,
And bids us live, and sin no more.

Verse 11
Our GOD alone hath Power to save,
Salvation in His Name we have,
Salvation from Sin, Death, and Hell:
But Them that dare in Sin proceed
He pours his Judgments on their Head,
And lets them all his Anger feel.
Yet will I bring (the Lord hath said)
Mine Own, again from Egypt freed,
And drown their Foes in the Red Sea,
I will mine antient Works repeat,
And bruise beneath my People’s Feet,
And slay their Threefold Enemy.

Verse 12
Thee, Saviour, let thy Church adore,
Thy Church hath serv’d Thee heretofore
With Typic Pomp and Solemn Joy;
Thou art the Strength of Israel’s Race,
Stablish in Us thy Work of Grace,
And all our Powers for Thee employ.
Thou shalt for thy own Glory’s sake,
The Kings of Earth thy Subjects make,
While humbly Each his Present brings,
Casts at thy Feet his menial Crown,
And lays his borrow’d Greatness down
And gladly serves the King of Kings.

Verse 13
Now, Lord, thy Grace Almighty shew,
The Warriors and their Hosts subdue,
Let Human Power to Thine submit,
Let every Soul it’s Tribute pay,
With Joy the Prince of Peace obey,
And fall adoring at his Feet.
His Mercy shall to All appear,
Barbarick Kings shall soon draw near,
And spread their Hands and Hearts abroad,
Ev’n Cham’s devoted Progeny
That glorious Gospel-Day shall see,
And grasp with Joy the Pardning GOD.

Verse 14
Ye Kingdoms of the Earth arise,
Sing unto GOD, who bows the Skies,
Salute th’ Almighty King of Kings,
He from the Heaven of Heavens come down,
Forsakes his Everlasting Throne,
And Grace and Peace to Sinners brings.
Hear Him, ye Nations, and rejoice,
His Voice He sends, his mighty Voice,
And bids you come to Him, and live:
Sinners, receive the Gospel-Word,
Your Loving, All-redeeming Lord
With Joy let all Mankind receive.

Verse 15
Jesus let all Mankind adore,
Give Him the Glory of his Power,
His Power display’d in Pardning Love,
His Excellence of Saving Grace
Is only known to Israel’s Race,
A Myste’ry to the Hosts above.
Thee by the highest Heavens ador’d,
Tremendous Everlasting Lord,
The GOD of Israel we proclaim;
The Glory of thy Grace receive:
All Blessing, Might, and Thanks we give,
All Praise, and Love to Jesus’ Name.
