Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7994 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Among th’assemblies of the great Lyrics: 1 Among th’assemblies of the great
A greater ruler takes His seat;
The God of Heav’n, as judge, surveys,
The gods on earth, and all their ways.
2 Why will ye, then, frame wicked laws?
Or why support th’unrighteous cause?
When will ye once defend the poor,
That sinners vex the saints no more?
3 They know not, Lord, nor will they know;
Dark are the ways in which they go;
Their name of earthly gods is vain,
For they shall fall and die like men.
4 Arise, O Lord, and let Thy Son
Possess His universal throne,
And rule the nations with His rod,
He is our judge, and He our God. Languages: English Tune Title: BABYLON'S STREAMS
