Psalm 46

GOd is our strength and refuge, then
when dangers us surround,
In troubles great a present help,
and ready to be found.
Wherefore we will not be afraid,
though th' earth removed be,
Though mountains hurled be into
the middle of the sea.

No, though the deep waters thereof
troubled with windes do roar,
And their high swellings cause to shake
the mountains on the shoar.
There is a brook whose pleasant streams
Gods City do make glad,
The holy place where the most high
his tabernacle had.

In midst of her God doth abide,
nothing can her remove,
For God betimes shall succour her,
and help her in his love.
The Heathen raged furiously,
the Kingdomes moved were,
He did but utter his loud voice,
the earth melted for feare.

The Lord of hosts stands on our part,
who all things doth command,
The God of Jacob's our high place,
all evil to withstand.
Come, and the works of God behold,
and weigh them in your thought,
What fearful desolations he
in all the world hath wrought.

Through th'earth he makes all wars to cease,
and them to peace he turns,
He breaks the bow, he cuts the spear,
with fire the charets burns.
Be still, and know that I am God,
and will exalted be,
The Heathen me shall magnifie,
the earth shall honour me.

The Lord of hosts stands on our part,
and he doth us defend,
And our high place is Jacobs God,
on him we do depend.
