4 A Lion when enraged is fierce, And all before him fly, So at thy frowns and dreadful wrath, How will the wicked cry!
4 A Lion when enrag'd is fierce, And all before him fly, So at thy frowns and dreadful wrath, How will the wicked cry!
5 When once the Lion's heard to roar, The Beasts of th' Forest quake, So when thou dost in wrath arise, Sad tremblings thou wilt make.
5 VVhen once the Lion's heard to roar, The Beasts of th' Forest quake, So when thou dost in wrath arise, Sad tremblings thou wilt make.
6 But if before a Lion one Himself does prostrate lie The Lion will not touch his Life, But leave him, and pass by.
7 So thou, O Lord, wilt such forgive, Who do themselves submit, And by Repentance humbly Lie prostrate at thy feet.
