Blest Is the Nation Where the Lord (EN 832)

EN 832 Blest Is the Nation Where the Lord

Ps.33.12

Versi Version 1

1

Blest is the nation where the Lord

Hath fixed His gracious throne,

Where He reveals His heav’nly Word

And calls their tribes His own.

2

His eye with infinite survey

Does the whole behold;

He formed us all of equal clay

And knows our feeble mold.

3

Kings are not rescued by the force

Of armies from the grave;

Nor speed nor courage of a horse

Can the bold rider save.

4

Vain is the strength of beasts or men,

To hope for safety thence;

But holy souls from God obtain

A sure and strong defense.

5

God is their fear, and God their trust;

When plagues or famine spread,

His watchful eye secures the just

Among ten thousand dead.

6

Lord, let our hearts in Thee rejoice,

And bless us from Thy throne;

For we have made Thy Word our choice,

And trust Thy grace alone.
