Psalms of Grace ‎#83b

83b. Assert Thy Claims, O God!

1 Assert Thy claims, O God!
Arouse Thy slumbering powers!
And crush beneath Thy conquering rod,
Thine enemies and ours.

2 The crafty and the strong,
Conspire 'gainst Thee and Thine.
O shield Thy hidden ones from wrong,
And blast their foes' design.

3 O let the same right arm,
That helped our fathers before,
Preserve Thy people still from harm,
And their faint hopes restore.

4 Let Thy prevailing Name,
Throughout the earth be known;
Put Satan and his hosts to shame,
And glorify Thy own.
