Psalm 50 (Version 2, Part 2)

C.M. (8.6.8.6) Psalm 50 📖 Isaac Watts

Psalm Text

Thus saith the Lord, "the spacious fields

"And flocks and herds are mine

"O'er all the cattle of the hills

"I claim a right divine.

"I ask no sheep for sacrifice,

"Nor bullocks burnt with fire;

"To hope and love, to pray and praise,

"Is all that I require.

"Call upon me when trouble's near,

"My hand shall set thee free;

"Then shall thy thankful lips declare

"The honour due to me.

"The man that offers humble praise,

"He glorifies me best;

"And those that tread my holy ways

"Shall my salvation taste."
