Psalm 58

Judges, who rule the world by laws,
Will ye despise the righteous cause,
When th' injured poor before you stands?
Dare ye condemn the righteous poor,
And let rich sinners 'scape secure,
While gold and greatness bribe your hands?

And life and light convey.

To make this duty our delight.

And keep thy law by day.

From vain desires and every lust
Turn off these eyes of mine.

What beauties in my Savior dwell,
Where he is gone they fain would know,
That they may seek and love him too.

Jesus, my Love, my soul's delight;
With warm desire and restless thought
I seek him oft, but find him not.

Sweetly invites his fav'rites nigh;
From caves of darkness and of doubt,
He gently speaks, and calls us out.

The wars of heav'n, when Michael stood
Chief general of th' Eternal King,
And fought the battles of our God.

Whence all their white array?
How came they to the happy seats
Of everlasting day?"

A man of prudent heart,
Whose thoughts, and lips, and life agree
To act a useful part.
