Isaac Watts - Psalm II: Why Did the Nations
Work rating: Low

Why did the nations join to slay
  The Lord`s anointed Son?
Why did they cast His laws away
  And tread His gospel down?

The Lord, that sits above the skies,
  Derides their rage below;
He speaks with vengeance in His eyes
  And strikes their spirits through.

"I call Him My Eternal Son,
  And raise Him from the dead;
I make My holy hill His throne,
  And wide His Kingdom spread."

"Ask me, My Son, and then enjoy
  The utmost heathen lands:
Thy rod of iron shall destroy
  The rebel that withstands."

Be wise, ye rulers of the earth,
  Obey the anointed Lord,
Adore the King of Heav`nly birth,
  And tremble at His word.

With humble love address his throne;
  For if He frown, you die:
Those are secure, and those alone,
  Who on His grace rely.
