Milton, John

"Psalms I-Viii, Lxxx-Lxxxviii"

]
3 Thine anger all thou hadst remov'd,
And [calmly] didst return
From thy fierce wrath which we had prov'd
Far worse then fire to burn.
4 God of our saving health and peace,
Turn us, and us restore,
Thine indignation cause to cease
Toward us, [and chide no more.]
5 Wilt thou be angry without end,
For ever angry thus
Wilt thou thy frowning ire extend
From age to age on us?
6 Wilt thou not turn, and [hear our voice]
And us again revive,
That so thy people may rejoyce
By thee preserv'd alive.
7 Cause us to see thy goodness Lord,
To us thy mercy shew
Thy saving health to us afford
[And life in us renew.]
8 [And now] what God the Lord will speak
I will go [strait and] hear,
For to his people he speaks peace
And to his Saints [full dear,]
To his dear Saints he will speak peace,
But let them never more
Return to folly, [but surcease]
[To trespass as before.]
9 Surely to such as do him fear
Salvation is at hand
And glory shall [ere long appear]
[To] dwell within our Land.
