Mr. Richard Baxter's paraphrase on the Psalms of David in metre with other hymns…

Blessed be the Lord, even Israel's God, For he hath visited his flock, And them redeemed; and raised up A Saviour out of David's stock. As by his holy Prophets mouths He our Redemption had fore-told; Who ever since the world began Were sent unto his Church of old.

BLess'd be the Lord, even Israel's God, For he hath visited his flock, And them redeem'd; and raised up A Saviour out of David's stock. As by his holy Prophets mouths He our Redemption had fore-told; Who ever since the world began Were sent unto his Church of old.

That by him we should saved be From our destructive enemies all; And of all them that do us hate, Be saved from the servile thrall. Thus the great mercies to perform, Which to our fathers promised were; His holy Covenant to make good, The Oath which he to Abraham sware.

That this deliverance he would grant To us, that now enthralled are; That saved from our enemies hands, We may serve him without their fear. In holiness and righteousness, Even all the days that we shall live; And thou the Prophet shalt be called, Which the most High to us doth give.
