4 All Kings on earth shall praise the Lord, When they shall hear [and know] thy word; And singing shall walk in thy ways, So great's thy [fame and] glory, Lord.
5 The God that's infinitely high, The lowly [men he] doth respect; But knows the proud as afar off, And with disdain [doth them] reject.
6 Though I in midst of trouble walk, [Thou wilt] revive me, and extend Thy hand against mine enemies wrath, [And] thy [right] hand shall me defend.
7 All that my welfare doth concern, The Lord [at last] will perfect make; O Lord, thy mercy endless is, Do not thy [handy] work forsake.
