Honour to Magistrates
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H39.II (1789) First Line: Eternal Sov'reign of the sky Lyrics: 4 Eternal Sov'reign of the sky,
And Lord of all below,
We mortals to thy majesty
Our first obedience owe.
5 Our souls adore thy throne supreme,
And bless thy providence,
For magistrates of various name,
Our glory and defence.
6 Where laws and liberty combine
To make the nation bless'd;
There magistrates with lustre shine,
And States are govern'd best.
7 Nations on firm foundations stand,
While virtue finds reward;
And sinners perish from the land
By justice and the sword.
8 To magistrates be honour paid,
To laws obedience shown;
But consciences and souls were made
To be the Lord's alone. Topics: Heidelberg Catechism Lord's Day 39 Languages: English

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #CLXII (1789) Lyrics: 1 Eternal, sov'reign Lord on high,
And Lord of all below!
We mortals to thy Majesty
Our first obedience owe.
2 Our souls adore thy pow'r supreme,
And bless thy providence,
For magistrates of meaner name,
Our glory and defence.
3 Kingdoms on firm foundations stand,
While virtue finds reward;
And sinners perish from the land,
By justice and the sword.
4 Where laws and liberties combine
To make a people blest,
There crowns with brightest lustre shine,
And kings are honour'd best.
5 Let Caesar's due be ever paid
To Caesar and his throne;
But consciences and souls were made
For thee, O God! alone.
