5 For thou my solemn vows To thee, my God, didst hear; And gavest me the heritage Of those thy name that fear.
6 A life by thee prolonged, Thou to the King wilt give, As many generations are The life that he shall live.
6 A life by thee prolong'd, Thou to the King wilt give, As many generations are The life that he shall live.
7 For ever before God His dwelling he shall have; Prepare thy mercy and thy truth, Which him may ever save.
8 So will I evermore Sing praises to thy name, That having made my vows, I may Daily perform the same.
