LyicsTHE just shall flourish in his days,
And prosper in his reign;
He shall, while doth the moon endure,
Abundant peace maintain.
His large and great dominion shall
From sea to sea extend;
It from the river shall reach forth
Unto earth's utmost end.
They in the wilderness that dwell
Bow down before him must;
And they that are his enemies
Shall lick the very dust.
The kings of Tarshish, and the isles,
To him shall presents bring;
And unto him shall offer gifts
Sheba's and Seba's king.
Yea, all the mighty kings on earth
Before him down shall fall;
And all the nations of the world
Do service to him shall.
For he the needy will preserve,
When he to him doth call;
The poor also, and him that hath
No help of man at all.
His name for ever shall endure;
Last like the sun it shall:
Men shall be bless'd in him, and bless'd
All nations shall him call.
