HYMN 408. Quieting Principles. Worldly Confidences condemned.

Psal. 62.8, 9.

O Have your hope in God alway ye Saints with one accord: Pour out your hearts to him, and say, our refuge is the Lord.
[verse 9] For all mankind is vanity, th' ignoble, mean and base, And they no better than a ly that are of higher place.
For lay them in the Balances with all their pomp and pelf: And lighter weighs the best of these than vanity it self.
(2. PART.)
Psalm 62.10, 11, 12.
O Trust not in oppression, in robbery be not vain: If wealth increase rest not thereon, nor set your heart on gain.

Page 475

The Lord hath spoken more than once, and often have I heard That God the Judgment must denounce, for every mans reward.
The power belongs to him alone, to punish and to spare: And Lord thou giv'st to every one just as his actions are. Let Israels mighty God therefore be prais'd perpetually: From first to last for evermore, Amen, Amen say I.
