Psalm 149

Abraham Coles

3 Let them praise Him in the dance,
With the timbrel beating time;
Tune His praise to pulsing wires,
And the harp's melodious chime.

4 For Jehovah pleasure takes
In His people from on high;
In due time He will the meek
With salvation beautify.

5 Let His honored saints exult,
On their beds sing to the Lord —
6 God's high praises in their mouth,
In their hand a two-edged sword,

7 Punishment to execute
On the nations that environ;
Bind their kings and nobles with
Fetters strong and chains of iron.
Hallelujah.
