HYMN 390. Mightiness of God in the day of Judgment. 5. METRE.

To the old proper Tune.

Psalm 50.

THE God of might Unto the earth did call: From Suns first light And rising to his fall: From Sion fair The Lord himself hath shone. God shall repair In noise and terror known.

Usher'd with flame, Wrapt in a stormy shower, And shall proclaim All judgment, in his power.

Gather to me My Saints in Covenant ty'd, And Heav'n shall see His justice magnify'd. My People, hear, O Israel, I come in And witness bear Against thee for thy sin. I will not blame Thy Sacrifices slender: Nor Bullocks claim, Nor Goats for thee to render.

Mine is each beast Which widest Forrest feed: Even to the least, Which thousand hills do breed. The Fowls I know Which on the mountains fly: Wild beasts also Which in the desarts ly. If I would eat, To thee I would not show it: For th' Earth compleat Is mine, I'd have thee know it.

That I require Bulls flesh, why should'st thou think? Or have desire The bloud of Goats to drink?

Thanksgiving bring, And pay to God thy Vows: This Offering He specially allows. Then on me call In time of thy temptation, Save thee I shall, And gain thy gratulation.
