HYMN 551. Promotion of the Church and State.

Psalm 132.8, 9.

ARise, O God, into thy rest, and settle us now at length, As when thy Ark did once invest the Temple of thy strength. O let thy Priests perpetually with righteousness be clad: And make thy Saints to shout for joy, and be exceeding glad.

13, 14, 16.
Because the Lord hath Sion chose, desiring there to dwell: This is for ever my repose, I love and like it well. My saving health shall cloath throughout his Priests perpetually: And I will make her Saints to shout, and shout aloud for joy.
15.17.
And I will in abundance spread provisions for her store: And I will satisfie with bread the numbers of her poor. There will I make the horn to bud of David on his Throne: I have ordain'd a lamp so good for mine anointed one.
18.
As for his enemies that combine, I'll cloath them all with shame: But on himself his Crown shall shine, and flourish with his fame.
