Text: | Do Ye, O Men, Speak Righteousness |
Tune: | DUNDEE |
Composer: | Christopher Tye |
1 Do ye, O men, speak righteousness
And upright judgment mete?
Nay, in your hearts is wickedness,
And in you hands deceit.
2 The wicked, from their earliest days,
in sin are gone astray,
With froward heart, in foolish pride,
From wisdom turned away.
3 The God of vengeance will destroy
The wicked from His sight;
The Lord will bring to nought their power,
And scatter all their might.
4 The good shall triumph and rejoice,
And this shall be confessed:
On earth the God of justice reigns,
And righteousness is blessed.
