Of Philistims Prophane.
The gates of Gaza bare away,
Deaths gates for all his traine.
2.
And in his Death, O wonderful!
The greatest victory
He gets o're sin, grave, Satan, Hell,
And routs them totally.
Ae 1.5 Saviour my poor Soul to save.
Thef 1.6 Scape-Goat for to bear
My wofull sins, hisg 1.7 Scepter brave
Doth free my Soul of fear.
3.
Ah 1.8 Servant for our Souls he was.
i 1.9 Shiloh sent for our good.
The Son Eternal, Heir of all.
A Shep-herd us to food.
k 1.10 A Standard to the World display'd.
Thel 1.11 Starr of Jacob bright.
Am 1.12 Stone most Precious, though refus'd.
An 1.13 Sun that's full of light.
4.
A Sun of Righteousness (I say)
To quicken and direct:
From him's my comfort, light and life,
He's surety for my debt.
