EN 1288 In Thy Heritage the Heathen

Ps.79.1

Versi Version 1

1

In Thy heritage the heathen

Now, O God, triumphant stand;

They defile Thy holy temple,

They destroy Thy chosen land;

Ruthless, they have slain Thy servants,

They have caused Thy saints to mourn;

In the sight of all about us

We endure reproach and scorn.

2

O how long against Thy people

Shall Thine anger burn, O Lord?

On Thine enemies, the heathen,

Be Thine indignation poured;

Smite the kingdoms that defy Thee,

Calling not upon Thy Name;

They have long devoured Thy people

And have swept Thy land with flame.

3

O remember not against us

Evil by our fathers wrought;

Haste to help us in Thy mercy

Near to ruin we are brought;

Help us, God of our salvation,

For the glory of Thy Name;

For Thy Name’s sake come and save us,

Take away our sin and shame.

4

Let Thy foes no longer scorn Thee,

Now avenge Thy servants slain;

Loose the prisoner, save the dying,

All Thine enemies restrain;

Then Thy flock, Thy chosen people,

Unto Thee their thanks shall raise,

And to every generation

We will sing Thy glorious praise.
