Psalm
99
[Recommended tunes: Colchester, Winchester, Old 22nd]
|
1Th' eternal Lord doth reign as king,
let all the people quake;
He
sits between the cherubims,
let th' earth be mov'd and shake.
|
|
2The Lord in Sion great and high
above all people is;
3Thy great and dreadful name (for it
is holy) let them bless.
|
|
4The king's strength also judgment loves;
thou settlest equity:
Just
judgment thou dost execute
in Jacob righteously.
|
|
5The Lord our God exalt on high,
and rev'rently do ye
Before
his footstool worship him:
the Holy One is he.
|
|
6Moses and Aaron 'mong his priests,
Samuel, with them that call
Upon
his name: these call'd on God,
and he them answer'd all.
|
|
7Within the pillar of the cloud
he unto them did speak:
The
testimonies he them taught,
and laws, they did not break.
|
|
8Thou answer'dst them, O Lord our God;
thou wast a God that gave
Pardon
to them, though on their deeds
thou wouldest vengeance have.
|
|
9Do ye exalt the Lord our God,
and at his holy hill
Do
ye him worship: for the Lord
our God is holy still.
