A psalm of thanksgiving to be sung by the Children of Christ's hospital, on Tuesday in the Easter holidays, at S. Mary's spital, for their Founders and Benefactors. Anno Domini, 1641. Chorus. OUR hearts we raise, This is to be sung by all the Children, and repeated after every Verse. in thanks and praise, thy sacred Name to bless, Since thou (O Lord) dost thus afford, our sorrows to redress. Versus. WHen Jacobs' heirs thou didst direct, to Canaan's milky Land, Thy mercy, Lord, did them protect, and guide them with thy hand: By Moses Rod thou gav'st them food, and mad'st their waters sweet; The Red-Seas waves as Pillars stood, and Jordan shuned their feet. In Clouds by day, thy love did keep, them, and their wants supply: And through the blackest darksome night, fire did their way descry. Chorus. Our hearts we raise, &c. Jordans of tears (Lord) thou hast dried from off our weeping eyes, Thy providence our grief descried and harkened to our cries. When nights of woes in vales of death made all our hopes depart, Loves fire was kindled by thy breath in our good patron's heart. Their staff of Bread like Moses Rod, did on the waters prove, Thy loving might (most gracious God) and greatness of thy love. Chorus. Our hearts we raise, &c. Buildup thy Churches broken walls, and crown this Land with Peace: Anoint thy Churches regal head, with glory ne'er to cease. Upon his Spouse, our royal Queen, and pledges of their love; On Clergy and Nobility, rain blessings from above. This City with thy grace enrich, here make thine ark to rest; Lord, let the Maior and Aldermen, with happy years be blessed. Chorus. Our hearts we raise, &c. Printed at London by Richard Oulton, dwelling near Christ-Church. 1641.
