The Psalms of David ‎#213a

213a. Public Praise for Deliverance from Death

1 Lord, thou hast heard thy Servant's Cry
And rescu'd from the Grave;
Now shall he live (and none can die,
If GOD resolve to save)

2 Thy Praise, more constant than before,
Shall fill his daily Breath;
Thy Hand, that hath chastis'd him sore,
Defends him still from Death.

3 Open the Gates of Sion now,
For we shall worship there;
The House where all the Righteous go
Thy Mercy to declare.

4 Among th' Assemblies of thy Saints
Our thankful Voice we raise;
There we have told Thee our Complaints,
And there we speak thy Praise.
