¶Lyrics / Text

1. O Lord of Hoastes, and God of Israel! Thou who betweene the Cherubins dost dwell; Of all the world thou onely art the King, and Heaven and Earth unto their forme didst bring. 2. Lord bowe thine eare; to heare attentive bee; Lift up thine eyes, and daigne, Oh Lord, to see What words Senacherib hath cast abroad; And his proud Message to the living God. 3. Lord, true it is, that Lands and Kingdomes all Are to the King of Ashur brought in thrall: Yea, he their Gods into the fire hath throwne: For Gods they were not, but of wood and stone. 4. Mans worke they were & men dethron'd them have. Us therefore from his power vouchsafe to save; That all the Kingdoms of the world may see, That thou art God, that onely thou art hee.
