Victory and Deliverance from Persecution

Verse 1

Are all the foes of Zion fools, Who thus devour her saints? Do they not know her Saviour rules, And pities her complaints?

Verse 2

They shall be seiz'd with sad surprise; For God's revenging arm Shall crush the hand that dares arise, To do his children harm.

Verse 3

In vain the sons of Satan boast Of armies in array; When God has first despis'd their host, They fall an easy prey.

Verse 4

Oh for a word from Zion's King, Her captives to restore! The joyful saints thy praise shall sing, And Isr'el weep no more.
