Tune: Coe Fen
('How shall I sing that majesty?')
Psalm 105 v.38-45
**********
The people at the Exodus
Said, God has done for us
Great things whereof we sure are glad
Our hearts no longer sad
And Egyptians too glad were they
When Israel that day
Departed, for their fear did fall
Upon Egyptians all
He spread cloud for a covering
From exile He did bring
Them and a fiery pillar too
Gave them night-light anew
The people asked, he gave them quails
His provision prevails
And satisfied them with the bread
Of heaven, with manna fed
He opened the rock, waters gushed
From it, in flowings rushed
Waters did run in dry places
Like river, each traces
For He remembered His holy
Promise, and graciously
Abraham His servant with who
He made covenant rue
He brought froth with joy His people
They celebrated all
And they His chosen ones gladness
Did share, He did them bless
And gave them lands of the heathen
They inherited then
That they might observes His laws, ways
Obey Him all their days
