Cannot redeeme a brother lost Or bring back life when fled away Or unto God his ransome pay 8. The soule so pretious is no rate Can it recall or expiate 9. That so he might for ever last And not of earth's corruption tast 10.

All generations shall Thee feare So long as Sun and Moon appeare 6 He shall like raine on grasse new mow'n Or showres that water earth come downe 7. The just shall flourish in His daies And Peace abound whilst light displayes 8. From Sea to Sea His Throne shall reach And from the flood to earths end stretch 9. They who in desarts dwell shall bow His foes as dust His feet below 10. Tarshish the Isles with Sheba's King And Seba shall their presents bring 11.

They therefore are with proud disdaine Compass'd as with a chaine And as a garment for defence Cover'd with violence 7. Their wanton eye with fatnesse swells And wealth their wish excells 8.

Thou mine acquaintance hast remov'd And sever'd me from those I lov'd Their friendship turned is to hate My life shut up and desolate 9.

Afflicted and in misery I almost ready am to dy From youth to age in lifes each act Thy suffer'd terrours me distract 16. Thy wrath quite over me doth go Thine indignation strikes me so 17.

They most prodigious wonders shew'd And signes in Hams aboad 28. Where darkness blacker then their nights In midst of noone affrights The foggs and vapours Him obey By putting out the day 29. Fish in their waters turn'd to blood Were smother'd in the Flood 30. Now Egypt frogs abundant brings In chambers of their Kings 31.

For raine He haile and tempest powres And flames of fire for showres With storme their Vines and Fig-trees shook Through all their land were broke 34. Locusts and caterpillers bred Not to be numbered 35. All herbs and fruits that could be found Devoured on the ground 36. Their first-borne He through Egypt slew Their chiefest strength orethrew 37. But brought His People forth with wealth Not one decay'd in health 38. Egypt was glad and quit of feare When They departed were 39. Whose guide by day the cloud became And in the night a Flame 40. On quailes His longing people fed From Heav'n He gave them bread 41. He from the rock made waters flow Springs in dry places grow 42. To Abraham His promise made He in remembrance had 43.

Thy works in Egypt they forgot Thy mercies there remembred not But at the Sea did Him provoke 8. Who yet their safety not forsook 9. The Red Sea he rebuk'd and dry'd Whose waters wall'd them on each side And through its depths uncovered As safe as through the desart led 10. Sav'd them from foes that did pursue 11. All which the waters overthrew 12. Then they beleev'd and praises gave 13. Though soon forgat who them did save 14. They lusted in the wildernes And God by their temptations press 15.

For which earth open'd to devour Abiram's Troops and Dathan's pow'r 18. Then kindled was a furious fire Which burnt up those that did conspire 19. Their hands a Calfe in Horeb made And to the Molten Image pray'd 20. His glory thus who them releast Was now converted to a beast 21. And Egypts wonders the Red Sea 22.

Then Phinchas aveng'd th' offence And staid the mortall pestilence 31. Which all successions held a seale Of righteousnes and holy zeale 32. Then at the waters where they strove They did againe His anger move Where it so ill with Moses went He suffer'd in their punishment 33.

As gifts to Divels offered Their Sonnes and daughters blood they shed 38. Whose guiltless lives to Idols slaine Did all the Land of Canaan staine 39. Thus they defil'd a whoring went In impious works themselves invent 40. Therefore the Lords enkindled rage Abhorred His own heritage 41. He gave Them up to Heathen pow'rs Their haters made Their conquerours 42. Opprest they were by foes subdu'd 43. Yet sav'd as oft their sins renew'd 44 But hearing their afflicted Cry He pitty'd their calamity 45. He most compassionate and kind His Covenant recall'd to mind And in his mercy did repent The sharpnes of their punishment 46. He made ev'n those with pity look Who Them before had captives took 47. Save us O Lord our God! protect And from the Heathen us collect To thank thy Name through all our daies And triumph in Thy mercies praise 48.

Thou turn'st to dust the Sons of men Then say'st Returne to life agen 4. A thousand yeares in thy account But to a day with us amount Nor are extended in thy sight Beyond the watch of one short night 5. Our time runs on like rapid streams We vanish as forgotten dreams 6. Like grasse or morning flowres we spring Then wither in the evening 7. When Thou displeased art we wast And unto nothing come at last 8. Thou mark'st our deeds our sins of night Are alwayes open to thy sight Making the breach of thy pure Lawes Our death and swift destructions cause 9. From whence we suddenly waxe old Expiring like a tale that 's told 10. The common Age of mortall men Exceeds not Threescore yeares and ten And if to Fourscore they attaine Their life is but a length'ned paine Incessant sorrowes and disease Their faculties and vigour seize For soon cut off our dayes decay And suddenly we flie away 11. But who regards Thy heauy wrath Or of Thy feare true feeling hath Neither Thy judgements nor Thy love Can us unto repentance move 12. Lord so our dayes to number teach We may the end of wisedome reach And learne those errours to forget Which us in Thy displeasure set 13 Returne O Lord and now repent At our endured punishment How long wilt Thou thy help delay Or not remove our woes away 14.

He shall preserve Thee from the net Which cunning hunters set Protecting thee by His defense In times of Pestilence 4. He over thee His wings shall spread With safety covered And least temptation make thee yield His truth shall be thy shield 5. The gastly terrours of the night Shall not thy peace affright Nor arrowes which by day do kill Thy life with slaughter spill 6. No tainted aire or noysome Pest Thy dwelling shall infest No perills which at noon destroy Thy safety shall annoy 7. Though Thousands or ten thousands dy'd Thick falling by thy side Thou shalt unhurt and guarded stand From sicknesse on each hand 8. Thine eye the wicked shall behold Unto destruction sold 9.

O then that men would praise the Lord Who such great goodnes doth afford Recording both by tongue and pen His wonders to the Sons of men 16. For He the gates of brass hath broke The iron barres in sunder strook 17. The foolish for their acted sin Have by His hand afflicted bin 18. So that their soul in sicknes cast Abhorring meat could nothing tast 19. Then they their cries to God address Who them deliver'd from distress 20. His word He sent them which reveal'd Their sorrowes and dejections heal'd 21.

For he commands the storme to blow 26. Whose billowes them to heaven throw Then downe they fall as if their graves Were made beneath the gaping waves 27. They stagger to and fro and reele And like a drunkard rowles the keele 28. Then they their cries to God address Who them delivers from distress 29. He calmes the storme whose rage gives ore 30. And lands them on the wished shore 31. O then that men would praise the Lord Who such great goodnes doth afford Recording both by tongue and pen His wonders to the Sons of men 32. In great assemblies bless his Name And 'mongst the Elders speak his fame 33. Who rivers like a desart dryes Makes parched sands where springs did rise 34. He barren makes a fruitfull ground For sins which in the Land abound 35. Then to a poole the desart brings And turns dry grounds to water springs 36. There He the hungry soules hath fill'd That they may live and Cities build 37. To plant the vine and sowe the field Which may hir fruits with plenty yield 38. He multiplies and gives them peace Their flocks not suff'ring to decrease 39. Againe they few when sinfull grow His punishments then brought them low 40. He mighty Princes put to scorne Makes them like wanderers forlorne 41. Yet setteth He the poor on high And spreads like flocks his family 42.

But for the mercies of Thy Name Deliver me O Lord from shame 22. For I am poor and prest with need My wounded heart doth inward bleed 23. I like the falling shadow go As puffs of wind the Locusts throw 24. My feeble knee through fasting failes And faintnes ore my flesh prevailes 25.
