He ••ustice brings to light;
His saving Truth extends,
Even in the Gentiles sight,
To Earths remotest Ends.
His Heavenly Grace
At full display'd,
And promise made
To Iacobs Race.
Let all that dwell on Earth
Their high Affections raise,
With universal Mirth,
And loudly sing his Praise:
To Musick joyn
The warbling Voice,
Let all rejoyce
With Joy divine.
The sprightly Trumpet sound;
The shrill-voic'd Cornet bring••
Let all with Joy abound
Before the Lord our King.
Rore out you Seas,
You spangled Skies,
All you comprise,
Rejoyce with these.
Floods clap your thronging waves,
You Hills exalt your mirth:
He, who his People saves,
Now comes to judge the Earth:
The round World shall
With Justice trie;
His Equitie
Dispenst to all.
