PSALM 110. Second Part. C.M.
Christ's kingdom and priesthood. (cont.)

6	And strike the pow'rs and princes dead,    Who dare oppose his reign.

PSALM 110. Third Part. L.M.
The council of peace.

1	JESUS the Priest ascends the throne; While counsels of eternal peace Between the Father and the Son, Proceed with honour and success.
2	Thro' the whole earth his reign shall spread And crush the pow'rs that dare rebel: Then shall he judge the rising dead, And send the guilty world to hell.
3	Tho' while he treads his glorious way, He drinks the cup of tears and blood; The suff'rings of that dreadful day Shall but advance him near to God.

PSALM 111. First Part. C.M.
The wisdom of God in his works.

1	SONGS of immortal praise belong    To my almighty God: He hath my heart, and he my tongue,    To spread his name abroad.
2	How great the works, his hand hath wrought!    How glorious in our sight! And men in ev'ry age have sought    His wonders with delight.
3	How most exact is nature's frame!    How wise th' Eternal mind! His counsels never change the scheme,    That his first thoughts design'd.
4	When he redeemed his chosen sons,    He fix'd his cov'nant sure: The orders, that his lips pronounce    To endless years endure.

PSALM 111. First Part. C.M.
The wisdom of God in his works. (cont.)

5	Nature and time, and earth and skies,    Thy heav'nly skill proclaim: What shall we do to make us wise,    But learn to read thy name?
6	To fear thy pow'r, to trust thy grace,    Is our divinest skill; And he's the wisest of our race,    Who best obeys thy will.

PSALM 111. Second Part. C.M.
The perfections of God.

1	GREAT is the Lord, his works of might    Demand our noblest songs: Let his assembled saints unite    Their harmony of tongues.
2	Great is the mercy of the Lord,    He gives his children food; And ever mindful of his word,    He makes his promise good.
3	His Son, the great Redeemer, came    To seal his cov'nant sure: Holy and rev'rend is his name;    His ways are just and pure.
4	They that would grow divinely wise,    Must with his fear begin: Our fairest proof of knowledge lies    In hating ev'ry sin.

PSALM 112. C.M.
The blessings of the pious and charitable.

1	HAPPY is he tliat fears the Lord,    And follows his commands; Who lends the poor, without reward,    Or gives with lib'ral hands.
2	As pity dwells within his breast    To all the sons of need;
