PSALMS.
( PSALM 2.)
S. M.
Christ rising, interceding, and reigning., WHY THY did the Gentiles rage, And Jews, with one accord, Bend all their counsels to destroy The Anointed of the Lord?
Rulers and kings agree To form a vain design; Against the Lord their powers unite, Against His Christ they join.
Ascended now on high,
He asks to rule the earth; The merit of His blood He pleads, And pleads His heavenly birth.
He asks, and God bestows A large inheritance;
Far as the world's remotest ends His kingdom shall advance.
Be wise, ye rulers, now,
And worship at His throne: With trembling joy, ye people, bow To God's exalted Son.
If once His wrath arise,
Ye perish on the place: Then, blessed is the soul that flies For refuge to His grace.
( PSALM 3.)

In this weak state of flesh and blood! My peace they daily discompose, But my defence and hope is God.
