HYMN 520. Jacob's safe Conduct. 1. METRE.
Psalm 114.
WHEN Israel Aegypts bounds forsook,and safely march'd along:And Jacob's house their journey tookfrom people strange of tongue. [verse 2] In Judah was his holy place,in Israel he reign'd: [verse 3] The Sea saw that, and fled apace,and Jordan was restrain'd.
descriptionPage 614
[verse 4] The Mountains like to Rams did start,the Hillocks as young Sheep:O Sea, what drove thee to depart?why fled the liquid deep? [verse 54] What forc'd thee (Jordan) on a heap,to rear thy water dams? [verse 65] Ye mountains great as Rams do leap,ye little Hills as Lambs?
Tremble O Earth, so justly aw'dat presence of the Lord:At presence of the mighty God,whom Jacob there ador'd.Who turns the Rock (that takes no dint)into a standing Pool:And flinty stones (the fiery flint)to Springs of water cool.
