Thou between Cherubs that dost dwell, upon us brightly shine.
[verse 3] In Ephraim's and Manasseh's sight, O let thy strength appeare;
In Benjamins sight stirre up thy might, to save us, Lord, draw neere.
[verse 4] Turne us again by thy great grace, convert us, Lord, to thee:
Shew us the brightnesse of thy face, and then full safe are we.
[verse 5] Lord God of hosts, with heart and tongue, we daily pray to thee;
And with thy peoples praier how long, Lord, angry wilt thou be?
[verse 6] Thou dost them seed with sorrowes deep, their bread with teares they eat;
And drink the teares that they do weep, in measure full and great.
[verse 7] Thou hast us made a strife to those that here our neighbours be:
They laugh at us that are our fors, wh•…•…n they our sorrowes see.
[verse 8] O take us, Lord, unto thy grace, convert our minds to thee;
Shew forth to us thy joyfull face, and we full safe shall be.
