The Wisdom and Equity of Providence

Hymnal: Psalms #9b (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: When the great Judge, supreme and just Lyrics: 1 When the great Judge, supreme and just, Shall once enquire for blood; The humble souls that mourn in dust, Shall find a faithful God. 2 He from the dreadful gates of death Does his own children raise: In Zion’s gates, with cheerful breath, They sing their Father’s praise. 3 His foes shall fall, with heedless feet, Into the pit they made; And sinners perish in the net That their own hands have spread. 4 Thus by thy judgment, mighty God, Are thy deep counsels known: When men of mischief are destroy'd, In snares that were their own. Pause. 5 The wicked shall sink down to hell; Thy wrath devour the lands, That dare forget thee, or rebel Against thy known commands. 6 Though saints to sore distress are brought, And wait, and long complain, Their cries shall never be forgot, Nor shall their hopes be vain. 7 [Rise, great Redeemer, from thy seat, To judge and save the poor; Let nations tremble at thy feet, And man prevail no more. 8 Thy thunder shall affright the proud, And put their hearts to pain, Make them confess that thou art God, And they but feeble men.] Scripture: Psalm 9:12 Languages: English
