The Church is the Honour and Safety of a Nation

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #89 (1787) Scripture: Psalm 48:1-8 First Line: Great is the Lord our God Lyrics: 1 [Great is the Lord our God, And let his praise be great; He makes his churches his abode, His most delightful seat. 2 These temples of his grace, How beautiful they stand? The honours of our native place, And bulwarks of our land.] 3 In Sion God is known, A refuge in distress; How bright has his salvation shone, How fair his heavenly grace? 4 When kings against her join'd, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind They fled with hasty fear. 5 When navies tall and proud Attempt to spoil our peace, He sends his tempest roaring loud, And sinks them in the seas. 6 Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where his own flocks have been. 7 In every new distress We’ll to his house repair, Recal to mind his wondrous grace, And seek deliverance there.
