4 Put hark again, for you must know, God's patience near is gone, A warning piece he has let off, The Battle is begun.
4 Put hark again, for you must know, God's patience near is gone, A warning piece he has let off, The Battel is begun.
5 O sing, ye Saints, God is come forth, An alarm he does sound, The Trumpets blow, and it is heard In every quarter round.
6 The Beast and cursed Babylon, Amazed are to hear What God in England late has done, But stranger things draw near.
7 God forth is coming with a shout, Sing praises, sing praises, He will all his Enemies rout, And good mens hope it raises.
