God's conduct to Israel, and the plagues of Egypt

Hymnal: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America #217 (1791) Hymnal Title: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America First Line: Give thanks to God, invoke his name Lyrics: 1 Give thanks to God, invoke his name, And tell the world his grace; Sound through the earth his deeds of fame, That all may seek his face. 2 His cov'nant which he kept in mind For num'rous ages past, To num'rous ages yet behind In equal force shall last. 3 He swore to Abra'm and his seed, And made the blessings sure; Gentiles the ancient promise read, And find his truth endure. 4 "Thy seed shall make all nations bless'd, (Said the Almighty voice) "And Canaan's land shall be their rest, "The type of heav'nly joys." [5 How large the grant! how rich the grace! To give them Canaan's land, When they were strangers in the place, A small and feeble band! 6 Like pilgrims, through the countries round Securely they remov'd; And haughty kings that on them frown'd Severely he reprov'd. 7 "Touch mine anointed, and mine arm "Shall soon avenge the wrong? "The man that does my prophets harm, Shall know their God is strong. 8 "Then let the world forbear its rage, "Nor put the church in fear; "Israel must live through ev'ry age, "And be th' Almighty's care.] Pause the First. 9 When Pharaoh dar'd to vex the saints, And thus provok'd their God, Moses was sent, at their complaints, Arm'd with his dreadful rod. 10 He call'd for darkness, darkness came Like an o'erwhelming flood: He turn'd each lake and ev'ry stream To lakes and streams of blood. 11 He gave the sign, and noisome flies Through the whole country spread; And frogs in baleful armies, rise About the monarch's bed. 12 Through fields, and towns, and palaces, The tenfold vengeance flew: Locusts, in swarms, devour'd their trees And hail their cattle slew. 13 Then, by an angel's midnight stroke The flow'r of Egypt died; The strength of ev'ry house was broke, Their glory and their pride. 14 "Now let the world forbear its rage, "Nor put the church in fear; "Israel must live through ev'ry age, "And be th' Almighty's care." Pause the Second. 15 Thus were the tribes from bondage freed, And left the hated ground: Rich with Egyptian spoils they fled, Nor was one feeble found. 16 The Lord himself chose out their way, And mark'd their journies right, Gave them a leading cloud by day, A fiery guide by night. 17 They thirst; and waters from the rock In rich abundance flow, And foll'wing still the course they took Ran all the desert through. 18 O wond'rous stream! O blessed type Of ever-flowing grace! So Christ our rock maintains our life And aids our wand'ring race. 19 Thus guarded by th' almighty hand, The chosen tribes possess'd Canaan the rich, the promis'd land, And there enjoy'd their rest. 20 "Then let the world forbear its rage, "The church renounce her fear; "Israel must live through ev'ry age, "And be the Almighty's care."
