Psalm 2:1-2,

Description

The text is my rendering of Psalm 2:1-2. This is quoted in the story in Acts 4:23-30, which in modern Bibles sometimes has the subtitle "A prayer for boldness," which was the source for the tune name.


Text

Why do the gentiles rage?
The peoples plot in vain?
The kings have set themselves against
Th'Anointed's promised reign.
