letra de princetown - william billings

Loading...

lord, hear the voice of my complaint
to my request give ear;
preserve my life from cruel foes
and free my soul from fear

o hide me with thy tend’rest care
in some secure retreat
from sinners that against me rise
and all their plots defeat

see how, intent to work my harm
they whet their tongues like swords;
and bend their bows to shoot their darts
sharp lies and bitter words
lurking in private, at the just
they take their secret aim;
and suddenly at him they shoot
quite void of fear and shame

to carry on their ill designs
they mutually agree;
they speak of laying private snares
and think that none shall see

with utmost diligence and care
their wicked plots they lay;
the deep designs of all their hearts
are only to betray

but god, to anger justly moved
his dreadful bow shall bend
and on his flying arrow’s point
shall swift destruction send

those slanders, which their mouths did vent
upon themselves shall fall;
their crimes, disclosed, shall make them be
despised and shunned by all

the world shall then god’s pow’r confess
and nations trembling stand
convinced that ’tis the mighty work
of his avenging hand
whilst righteous men, whom god secures
in him shall gladly trust;
and all the listening earth shall hear
loud triumphs of the just
