Psalm 46

GOD is our strength and present aid,
Our refuge in our need:
Therefore we will not be afraid,
Nor tottering earth-quakes heed.
Tho midst of Seas huge hils be hurld,
Tho troubled waters rore:
And swellings of the billows curld,
Make mountains tremble sore.
A river there with crystall stream,
Shall glad that Citie of his:
The sacred tents of God supream:
The Lord amidst her is;
Right early God shall help her there,
She shall not once be mov'd:
The heathen Kingdoms moved were,
And most outragious prov'd.
He uttering then that voice of his,
Made th'earth to melt away:
The Lord of hoasts with Israel is,
And Jacobs God our stay.
Come, see Gods works, whose powerfull hand
The earth hath des'late made:
He ceaseth wars in every Land,
He breaks the desp'rate blade.
He fires the Chariot, breaks the bow;
Be still and know, saith he,
That I am God on earth below,
And there extoll'd will be:
Among the heathens magnifi'd
Shall be my glorious power.
The Lord of hoasts is on our side,
And Jacobs God our Tower.
