PSALM 33. First Part. C.M.
Works of creation and providence. (cont.)

2	His works of nature and of grace    Reveal his wondrous name.
3	His wisdom and almighty word    The heav'nly arches spread; And by the spirit of the Lord    Their shining hosts were made.
4	He bid the liquid waters flow    To their appointed deep: The flowing seas their limits know,    And their own station keep.
5	Ye tenants of the spacious earth,    With fear before him stand: He spake, and nature took its birth,    And rests on his command.
6	He scorns the angry nations' rage,    And breaks their vain designs: His counsel stands thro' ev'ry age,    And in full glory shines.

PSALM 33. Second Part. C.M.
Creatures vain, and God all-sufficient.

1	BLEST is the nation where the Lord    Hath fix'd his gracious throne; Where he reveals his heav'nly word,    And calls their tribes his own.
2	His eyes, with infinite survey,    The spacious world behold; He form'd us all of equal clay,    And knows our feeble mould.
3	Kings are not rescu'd by the force    Of armies from the grave: Nor speed nor courage of a horse    Can the bold rider save.
4	Vain is the strength of beasts or men,    To hope for safety thence;

PSALM 33. Second Part. C.M.
Creatures vain, and God all-sufficient. (cont.)

4	But holy souls from God obtain    A strong and sure defence.
5	God is their fear, and God their trust,    When plagues or famine spread: His watchful eye secures the just    Among ten thousand dead.
6	Lord, let our hearts in thee rejoice,    And bless us from thy throne: For we have made thy word our choice,    And trust thy grace alone.

PSALM 34. First Part. C.M.
Praise for eminent deliverance.

1	THRO' all the changing scenes of life,    In trouble and in joy, The praises of my God shall still    My heart and tongue employ. HL Note
2	Come, magnify the Lord with me,    And high exalt his name: When in distress on him I call'd,    He to my rescue came.
3	The hosts of God encamp around    The dwellings of the just: Deliv'rance he affords to all,    Who on his succour trust.
4	O! make but trial of his love:    Experience will decide, How bless'd they are, and only they,    Who in his truth confide.
5	Fear him, ye saints; and you will then    Have nothing else to fear: Make you his service your delight;    He'll make your wants his care.
