2 Thou hast to wages a just right, As other Servants have; Hence crowned art with glory bright, And more than that dost crave,
3 The souls of all thine own Elect Thy wages are also; ⟨p. 60⟩With grace they must be all bedecked, And crowned they shall be too.
3 The souls of all thine own Elect Thy wages are also; ⟨p. 60⟩VVith grace they must be all bedeck't, And crown'd they shall be too.
4 The Heathen's thine Inheritance, Possession thou must have Of all the Earth, in God's good time The same thou shalt receive.
5 Because thou didst thy soul pour forth, God to thee will divide A portion with th' Kings o'th' Earth, To bring down all their pride.
