Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David, corrected and enlarged, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (2nd ed.) #284 (1786) Topics: Saints judging the world; Saints judging the world First Line: All ye that love the Lord, rejoice Lyrics: 1 All ye that love the Lord, rejoice,
And let your songs be new;
Amidst the church with cheerful voice
His later wonders shew.
2 The Jews the people of his grace,
Shall their Redeemer sing;
And Gentile nations join the praise,
While Zion owns her king.
3 The Lord takes pleasure in the just,
Whom sinners treat with scorn;
The meek that lie despis'd in dust
Salvation shall adorn.
4 Saints should be joyful in their king,
E'en on a dying bed;
And like the souls in glory sing,
For God shall raise the dead.
5 Then his high praise shall fill their tongues,
Their hands shall wield the sword;
And vengeance shall attend their songs,
The vengeance of the Lord.
6 When Christ his judgment-seat ascends,
And bids the world appear,
Thrones are prepar'd for all his friends
Who humbly lov'd him here.
7 Then shall they rule with iron rod
Nations that dar'd rebel;
And join the sentence of their God,
On tyrants doom'd to hell.
8 The royal sinners bound in chains
New triumph shall afford:
Such honour for the sainta remains:
Praise ye and love the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 149 Languages: English
Praise God, all his Saints; or, The Saints judging the World
