7 “Touch mine anointed, and my arm
“Shall soon revenge the wrong: 
“The man that does my prophets harm
Shall know their God is strong.”

8 Then let the world forbear its rage,
Nor put the church in fear: 
Israel must live thro’ every age,
And be th’ Almighty’s care.]

Pause I.

9 When Pharaoh dar’d to vex the saints,
And thus provok’d their God,
Moses was sent at their complaints,
Arm’d with his dreadful rod.

10 He call’d for darkness; darkness came
Like an o’erwhelming flood;
He turn’d each lake and every stream
To lakes and streams of blood.

11 He gave the sign, and noisome flies
Thro’ the whole country spread;
And frogs, in croaking armies, rise
About the monarch’s bed.

12 Thro’ fields, and towns, and palaces,
The tenfold vengeance flew;
Locusts in swarms devour’d their trees,
And hail their cattle slew.

13 Then by an angel’s midnight stroke,
The flower of Egypt dy’d;
The strength of every house was broke,
Their glory and their pride.

14 Now let the world forbear its rage,
Nor put the church in fear;
Israel must live thro’ every age,
And be th’ Almighty’s care.

Pause II.

15 Thus were the tribes from bondage brought,
And left the hated ground;
Each some Egyptian spoils had got,
And not one feeble found.

16 The Lord himself chose out their way,
And mark’d their journies right,
Gave them a leading cloud by day,
A fiery guide by night.

17 They thirst; and waters from the rock
In rich abundance flow,
And following still the course they took,
Ran all the desert thro’.

18 O wondrous stream O blessed type
Of ever-flowing grace! 
So Christ our rock maintains our life
Thro’ all this wilderness.

19 Thus guarded by th’ Almighty hand
The chosen tribes possest
Canaan the rich, the promis’d land,
And there enjoy’d their rest.

20 Then let the world forbear its rage,
The church renounce her fear;
Israel must live thro’ every age,
And be th’ Almighty’s care.

Psalm 106:1. 1-5.  First Part. 
Praise to God; or, Communion with saints.

1 To God, the great, the ever blest,
Let songs of honour be addrest: 
His mercy firm for ever stands;
Give him the thanks his love demands.

2 Who knows the wonders of thy ways?  Who shall fulfil thy boundless praise?  Blest are the souls that fear thee still, And pay their duty to thy will.

3 Remember what thy mercy did
For Jacob’s race, thy chosen seed;
And with the same salvation bless
The meanest suppliant of thy grace.

4 O may I see thy tribes rejoice,
And aid their triumphs with my voice! 
This is my glory, Lord, to be
Join’d to thy saints, and near to thee.

Psalm 106:2. 7 8 12-14 43-48. 2d Part.  Israel punished and pardoned; or, God’s unchangeable love.
