HYMN 333. (2. PART.)

Argument.
The sure destruction of rebellious men, The Lord is prais'd for Judgments upon them.
THY hand shall find out all thy foes, whoever, Lord, they be, And thy right hand shall find out those that bear ill will to thee. And make them as the Ovens hot steam what time thy wrath shall light: The Lord in wrath shall swallow them, and fire devour them quite.
Their fruit likewise shalt thou destroy from off the Earths increase, And cut off their posterity, and cause their seed to cease. For they intended ill to thee, and thought they should succeed In their mischievous Tragedy, but could not act the deed.
And thou shalt make them for these things to turn their backs apace, Charging thine arrows on the strings against their very face.

Be thou exalted, O most high, in thine own strength therefore, And so our Songs shall magnify thy might for evermore.
