Psalm 9:1. First Part. Wrath and mercy from the judgment-seat.

← The Psalms of David Imitated in the Language of the New Testament and Applied to the Christian State and Worship

1 With my whole heart I'll raise my song, Thy wonders I'll proclaim; Thou sov'reign judge of right and wrong Wilt put my foes to shame.

2 I'll sing thy majesty and grace; My God prepares his throne To judge the world in righteousness And make his vengeance known.

3 Then shall the Lord a refuge prove For all the poor opprest, To save the people of his love, And give the weary rest.

4 The men, that know thy name will trust In thy abundant grace; For thou hast ne'er forsook the just, Who humbly seek thy face.

5 Sing praises to the righteous Lord, Who dwells on Zion's hill, Who executes his threatening word, And doth his grace fulfil.
