HYMN 459. (2. PART.)
Argument.
The true believers tread the Dragon down,Attain choice comforts, and at length the Crown.
[verse 9] SInce thou hast made the most high GodThy refuge and thy safe abode, [verse 10] No evil shall impede thy joy,Nor plague thy dwelling shall annoy.
[verse 11] For he shall give his Angels chargeTo keep thee in thy ways at large: [verse 12] These in their hands shall thee supportLest thy foot stumble to thy hurt.
[verse 13] The Lyon thou mayst boldly meet,Tread th' Asp and Dragon under feet; [verse 14] Because he fixt his love on meI will from dangers set him free.
descriptionPage 528
I'll set him high, protect and own,Because that he my Name hath known: [verse 15] When he calls on me, I'll reply;And in his trouble I'll stand by.
I'll send him safe deliverance,And unto honour him advance: [verse 16] Give him long Life, and when that's done,Will shew him my Salvation.
