Cantate dominum. Psalme. exlix. N.

☞ An exhortation to the churche to prayse the Lorde for hys victorye and conquest, that he geueth his fainctes against all mans power.

SIng ye vnto the Lorde our God, a new reioysing song: And let the prayse of him be heard, his holy sainctes among. Let Israell reioyse in him, that made him of nothing: And let the sede of Sion eke, be ioyfull in their king.

Let them sound prayse with voyce of flut vnto his holy name: And with the timbrell and the harpe, sing prayses of the same. For why the Lorde his pleasure all, hath in his peoyle set: And by deliuerance he will rayse, the meke to glory great.

With glory and with honor now, let all the sainctes reioyse: And now aloude vpon their beds, aduaunce their singing voyce. And in their mouthes let be the actes, of God the mighty Lorde: And in their handes eke let them beare, a dooble edged sworde.

To plage the Heathen and correct, the people with theyr handes, To bind their stately kinges in chaines their lordes in iron bandes. To execute on them the dome, that written is before: This honor all his sainctes shall haue, prayse ye the lorde therfore.
