Lord, thou hast heard thy servant cry
And rescued from the grave;
Now shall he live; and none can die,
If God resolve to save.
Thy praise, more constant than before,
Shall fill his daily breath;
Thy hand, that hath chastised him sore,
Defends him still from death.
Open the gates of Zion now,
For we shall worship there;
The house where all the righteous go
Thy mercy to declare.
Among th' assemblies of thy saints
Our thankful voice we raise;
There we have told thee our complaints,
And there we speak thy praise.
---Alternative verses---
Lord, thou hast heard thy servants cry
And rescued from the grave;
Now shall we live; for none can die,
Whom God resolves to save.
Thy praise, more constant than before,
Shall fill our daily breath;
Thy hand, that hath chastised us sore,
Defends us still from death.
Open the gates of Zion now,
For we will worship there;
To thine own house with joy we'll go
Thy mercy to declare.
Here, with th' assembly of thy saints
Our cheerful voice we raise;
Here we have told thee our complaints,
And here we speak thy praise.
