Psalm 106 (part 2)

Isaac Watts

2 They saw Thy wonders wrought,
And then Thy praise they sung;
But soon Thy works of power forgot,
And murmur'd with their tongue.

3 Now they believe His Word,
While rocks with rivers flow;
Now with their lusts provoke the Lord,
And He reduced them low.

4 Yet when they mourn'd their faults,
He hearken'd to their groans;
Brought His own covenant to His thoughts,
And call'd them still His sons.

5 Their names were in His book;
He saved them from their foes;
Oft He chastised, but ne'er forsook
The people that He chose.

6 Let Israel bless the Lord,
Who loved their ancient race;
And Christians join the solemn word,
AMEN, to all the praise.

Isaac Watts, 1719.
