RF PSA 44:1 To the Conductor of the Choristers.
A Meditation.
STANZA 1.
THE GENERAL.
O! GOD, we have heard with our ears,
Our Fathers relating to us,
The wonders You did in their days,
RF PSA 44:2 In the days of old times,
When your hand drove the Heathen away,
And you punished and flung out vile tribes.
RF PSA 44:3 For they seized not the land by their sword,
And their own arm did not save themselves,
But Your right hand and arm,
And the light of Your face, for You loved.
RF PSA 44:4 STANZA 2.
THE TROOPS.
And You are our Leader, and GOD,
Who orders for Jacob success.
RF PSA 44:5 Our opponents through You we defeat,
And who rise, we o'erthrow by Your NAME.
RF PSA 44:6 THE GENERAL.
For I rely not on my bow,
And victory comes not from my sword;—
RF PSA 44:7 But from our assailants You save,
And make those who hate us to fail.
RF PSA 44:8 Let us cheer to our GOD all the day,
And for ever give praise to His NAME.
RF PSA 44:9 STANZA 3.
THE TROOPS.
Will You now reject and disgrace.
And not with our armies go out?—
RF PSA 44:10 Would You now turn us from our foes,
And let those who hate us rejoice?
RF PSA 44:11 Will You let us be eaten like sheep,
And for Pagans to chase like a storm?
RF PSA 44:12 Will You sell Your People for naught
And make no wealth out of their price?
RF PSA 44:13 Will You set us a scorn to our friends,
To our neighbors a laughter and mock?
RF PSA 44:14 Will You set us a proverb to Pagans,
And to Peoples a shaking of head?
RF PSA 44:15 THE GENERAL.
All day put dishonor before me,
And cover my face with disgrace?
RF PSA 44:16 At the voice of Derision and Libel,
In the face of my foe, unrevenged?
RF PSA 44:17 STANZA 4.
THE TROOPS.
All this comes, tho' we have not forsook,
Or not to your Treaty been false;
RF PSA 44:18 We have not turned away in our hearts,
Nor bent our steps out of Your path,
RF PSA 44:19 Yet we fall in a den full of snakes,
And are wrapped in the Shadow of Death!
RF PSA 44:20 Had we forgotten the name of our GOD,
And stretched our hands to a God who was strange,
RF PSA 44:21 Would not GOD enquire about that,
For he knows all the secrets of hearts?
RF PSA 44:22 Yet for You we are murdered all day,
We are treated like sheep to be slain!
RF PSA 44:23 Rouse, ALMIGHTY! For what do You sleep?
Awake! nor cast us off for ever!
RF PSA 44:24 Your face, for how long will You hide,
And forget our affliction and grief?
RF PSA 44:25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust:
our belly cleaveth unto the earth. (KJV)
RF PSA 44:26 Rise up, and to us restore ease,
And redeem us, because You are kind.
