With melody of sound record
His honors and your joys.

And makes th' oppressor cease,
Behold how envious sinners try
To vex and break my peace.

And boast the large estates they have?
How vain are riches to secure
Their haughty owners from the grave!

When storms of sharp distress invade
Ere we can offer our complaints,
Behold him present with his aid.
