PSALM XXIX.
[Another Metre.]
[ 1] YE mighty Rulers of the World,God's glorious Reign proclaim: [ 2] And in his Sanctuary giveDue Honour to his Name. [ 3] Whose thundring voice do's run thro' allThe Regions of the Sky:The Seas start at the Noise, so full [ 4] Of Power and Majesty. [ 5] Tall Cedars bow their heads, and breakBefore the Mighty Sound: [ 6] High Mountains feel the Shock, and likeA frighted Calf rebound. [ 7] Before this Voice the pointed FlamesOf Lightning tear the air: [ 8] Kadesh's wild InhabitantsQuake, as not safe, for fear. [ 9] This makes the Hinds to calve, wild BeastsThe naked Coverts leave:But in God's Temple, fearless allTo him their praises give. [ 10] God's Empire do's extend to CloudsAbove, and Floods below:This great Protector of the good,Will Peace on his bestow,
