Psalm LXXXIX. Sec. Part. L. Met. Divine Sovereignty and public worship

What seraph of celestial birth To vie with Israel's God shall dare? Or who among the sons of earth, Can with the mighty God compare?

Lord God of armies who can boast Of strength and power like thine renown'd? Of such a num'rous faithful host, As that which does thy throne surround?

Thou dost the raging sea controul And change the surface of the deep; Thou mak'st the sleeping billows roll, Thou mak'st the rolling billows sleep!

In thee, the sov'reign right remains Of earth and heaven; thee, Lord, alone, The world and all that it contains Their maker and preserver own.

Happy, thrice happy they, who hear The sacred trumpet's joyful sound; And who among thy saints appear With thy most glorious presence crown'd.

With rev'rence and religious dread Thy saints will to thy temple press; Thy fear thro' all their hearts shall spread Who thy most holy name confess.
