A New Version of the Psalms of David ‎#276a

276a. Who place on Sion's God their Trust

1 Who place on Sion's God their Trust,
like Sion's Rock shall stand;
Like her immoveably be fixt
by his Almighty Hand.
2 Look how the Hills on ev'ry Side
Jerusalem inclose,
So stands the Lord around his Saints,
to guard them from their Foes.

3 The Wicked may afflict the Just,
but ne'er too long oppress,
Nor force him by Despair to seek
base Means for his Redress.
4 Be good, O righteous God, to those
who righteous Deeds affect:
The Heart that Innocence retains,
let Innocence protect.

5 All those who walk in crooked Paths,
the Lord shall soon destroy;
Cut off th' Unjust, but crown the Saints
with lasting Peace and Joy.
