When Isra'l, by th'Almighty led

Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When Isra'l, by th'Almighty led, (Enrich'd with their Oppressor's Spoil) From Egypt march'd, and Jacob's Seed From Bondage in a foreign Soil; 2 JEHOVAH, for his Residence, Chose out Imperial Judah's Tent, His Mansion Royal, and from thence Through Israel's Camp his Orders sent. 3 The distant Sea with Terror saw, And from th'Almighty's Presence fled; Old Jordan's Streams surpriz'd with Awe, Retreated to their Fountain's Head. 4 The taller Mountains skipp'd like Rams, When Danger near the Fold they hear; The Hills skipp'd after them like Lambs, Affrighted by their Leader's Fear. 5 O Sea, what made your Tide withdraw, And naked leave your oozy Bed? Why Jordan, against Nature's Law, Recoild'st thou to thy Fountain's Head? 6 Why, Mountains did ye skip like Rams, When Danger does approach the Fold? Why after you, the Hills like Lambs, When they their Leader's Flight behold? 7 Earth tremble on; well may'st thou fear Thy LORD and Maker's Face to see; When Jacob's awful GOD draws near, 'Tis Time for Earth and Seas to flee. 8 To flee from GOD, who Nature's Law Confirms and cancels at his Will; Who Springs, from flinty Rocks, can draw, And thirsty Vales with Water fill. Topics: Thanksgivings For Delerances and Wonders, General Scripture: Psalm 114 Used With Tune: [When Isra'l by th'Almighty led]
