but do thou glory take
Unto thy name, ev’n for thy truth,
and for thy mercy’s sake.
Vers 2
Where is their God now gone?
But our God in the heavens is,
what pleas’d him he hath done.
Vers 3
work of men’s hands they be.
Mouths have they, but they do not speak;
and eyes, but do not see;
Vers 4
noses, but savour not;
Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk;
nor speak they through their throat.
Vers 5
on them their trust that build.
O Isr’el, trust thou in the Lord,
he is their help and shield.
Vers 6
their help and shield is he.
Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield he’ll be.
Vers 7
and he will bless us still:
He will the house of Isr’el bless,
bless Aaron’s house he will.
Vers 8
he will them surely bless.
The Lord will you, you and your seed,
aye more and more increase.
Vers 9
who made the earth and heav’n.
The heav’n, ev’n heav’ns, are God’s, but he
earth to men’s sons hath giv’n.
Vers 10
God’s praise do not record.
But henceforth we for ever will
bless God. Praise ye the Lord.
