Amen PSALME 137. A Prayer for redemption of the Church from captivity and persecution BY the waters of Babylon we sat down and wept when we remembred thee O Sion 2 As for our harps we hanged them up upon the trees that are therein 3 For they that led us away captive required of us then a song and melody in our heavinesse sing us one of the songs of Sion 4 How shall wee sing the Lords song in a strange land 5 If I forget thee O Jerusalem let my right hand forget her cunning 6 If I doe not remember thee let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth yea if I preferre not Jerusalem in my mirth 7 Remember the children of Edom O Lord in the day of Jerusalem how they said Down with it down with it even to the ground 8 O daughter of Babylon wasted with misery yea happy shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us 9 Blessed shall he be that taketh thy children and throweth them
fraud and malice of blood-thirsty and deceitfull men and from the crafty insinuations of all them that work vanity but let thy blessings bee upon the righteous and let thy favourable kindnesse defend thy whole Church as with a shield that all those who put their trust in thy mercy may be ever giving of thanks and may be joyfull in thee O lead us in thy righteousnesse that we become not a rejoycing to our enemies but that we may worship thee in feare and come into thy house to make our prayers unto thee and to give thee thanks for the multitude of thy mercies which thou hast given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ.
