Elhanan Winchester, 1797

Description

This text is taken from Elhanan Winchester's Psalms. The metre is 6,6,4,6,6,6,4. I wrote this tune in A&E.


Text

Great is my Saviour's name,
He over all shall reign,
Earth's Great Supreme;
His foes his name have heard,
They perish at his word,
No arm can help afford,
None can redeem.

Who love iniquity
Shall separated be,
When he shall reign;
All Kings shall him adore,
And bow before his pow'r;
But all his foes shall roar
And loud complain.

His name to Heav'n ascends,
His reign o'er earth extends,
All him shall fear;
He shall his Saints reward,
Who listen to his word.
And make his fame be heard,
His image bear.
