HYMN 133.
Psal. 42. 7. All thy Floods and Waves are gone over me.
1 The Floods, O Lord, the Floods do rise, They roar, and make a noise; The Floods break out and swell a••in, And do list up their voice.
1 THe Floods, O Lord, the Floods do rise, They roar, and make a noise; The Floods break out and swell a••in, And do list up their voice.
2 There's many Waters we do see That threaten us full sore; The wicked rage and swell in wrath, O Lord, still more and more.
3 They all conspire with one heart How they may thee withstand; Arise, O Lord, and take our part, They are in league and band.
4 The Tents of all the Edomites, The Ishmaelites also, The Hagarens and the Moabites, With divers others too.
5 Gebal with Amon, and likewise Doth Amaleck conspire; The Philistines against thee rise, With them that dwell at Tyre.
6 O thou who sits upon the Floods To rule and govern all, Break forth upon thine Enemies, And give them their last fall.
HYMN 134.
The Second Part. 1 One grief, and then another doth Like Clouds their Waters pour; The Floods of cursed evil Men Do threaten to devour 2 Thy People all: O Lord, look down! Rebuke them in thy wrath! Thou art our hope and our defence, O stretch thine Arm now forth, ⟨p. 299⟩3 And let them know they are but Men, And must subject to thee; What evil they intend to do, Let it prevented be; 4 And we will lift thy Name on high, And them we will not fear, If thou wilt, Lord, our sins forgive, And for our help appear.

Heb. 3. 7. To day if you will hear his voice.
1 TO day, O hear God's gracious Call, O don't the time delay! The morrow you must not boast of, 'Tis now whilst 'tis to day.
