1 Sing to the Lord aloud,
And make a joyful noise;
GOD is our strength, our Saviour GOD;
Let Israel hear his voice.
2 “From idols false and vain,
"Preserve my rites divine;
"I am the Lord who broke thy chain
"Of slavery and of sin.
3 "Stretch thy desires abroad,
"And I’ll supply them well;
"But if ye will refuse your GOD,
"If Israel will rebel:
4 "I’ll leave them, saith the Lord,
"To their own lusts a prey,
"And let them run the dangerous road,
"’Tis their own chosen way.
5 "Yet Oh! that all my saints
"Would hearken to my voice!
"Soon I would ease their sore complaints,
"And bid their hearts rejoice.
6 "While I destroy their foes,
"I’ll richly feed my flock,
"And they shall taste the stream that flows
"From their eternal rock."
