PSALM 47, by                    
First Line: All people to jehovah bring
Last Line: Princes the shields that earth defend.


All people to Jehovah bring
A glad applause of clapping hands
To God a song of Triumphs sing
Who high of highly feared stands
Of all the earth sole ruling King.

From whose Almighty Grace it growes
That Nations by our power opprest
Our foot on humbled Countrys goes
Who Jacobs honour loved best
An heritage for us hath chose

Here past he by, hark how did ring
Harmonious ayr with trumpets sound
Prayse, prayse Our God, prayse prayse Our King
King of the World you judgments sound
With skilfull song his prayses sing

On sacred throne, not knowing end
For God the King of Kingdoms raigns
The Folk of Abrahams God to friend
He greatest Prince great princes gains
Princes the shields that earth defend.
