80b. Psalm 2

1. Though sinners boldly join
Against the Lord to rise,
Against his Christ combine,
Th’ Anointed to despise;
Though earth disdain
And hell engage,
Vain is their rage,
Their counsel vain.

2. Jesus the Saviour reigns!
On Zion is his throne;
The Lord’s decree sustains
His own begotten Son:
Up from the grave
He bids him rise,
And mounts the skies
With power to save.

3. O serve the Lord with fear,
And rev’rence his command;
With sacred joy draw near,
With solemn trembling stand;
Kneel at his throne,
Your homage bear,
His pow’r declare,
And kiss the Son.
