They have not refused a weak, titular, mortal Lord, but the Lord of heaven and earth; that spake the word and they were made, that can speak again and they shall be marred. Psal. 18.7. The earth trembled, and the foundations of the hills were moved, because he was wroth. It was this Lord, Isaiah 30.33. Tophet is ordained of old, the pile thereof is fire and much wood, and the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it. It was this Lord, Matth. 18.34. The Lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors. It was this Lord. A Lord that is every where to see his wrongs, that hath a just hand to requite them, and an almighty power to revenge them: from the wrath of this Lord, the Lord himself deliver us. Lord, who knows thy greatness, and dares deny thee? who knows thy goodness, and will deny thee? who knows thy mercy, and can deny thee? Thou art our God, and we will praise thee: thou art our Lord, and we will serve thee: thou art our Father, and we will honour thee: thou art our Judge, and we will fear thee: thou art our advocate, we will not deny thee: thou art our hope, our joy, our blessedness, our salvation, and we will love thee for ever.
They have not refused a weake, titular, mortall Lord, but the Lord of heaven and earth; that spake the word and they were made, that can speake againe and they shall be marr'd. Psal. 18.7. The earth trembled, and the foundations of the hils were moved, because he was wroth. It was this Lord, Esay 30.33. Tophet is ordained of old, the pile thereof is fire and much wood, and the breath of the Lord, like a streame of brimstone, doth kindle it. It was this Lord, Matth. 18.34. The Lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentours. It was this Lord. A Lord that is every where to see his wrongs, that hath a just hand to requite them, and an almighty power to revenge them: from the wrath of this Lord, the Lord himselfe deliver us. Lord, who knowes thy greatnesse, and dares deny thee? who knowes thy goodnesse, and will deny thee? who knowes thy mercy, and can deny thee? Thou art our God, and we will praise thee: thou art our Lord, and we will serve thee: thou art our Father, and we will honour thee: thou art our Iudge, and we will feare thee: thou art our advocate, we will not deny thee: thou art our hope, our joy, our blessednesse, our salvation, and wee will love thee for ever.
