From Isaiah 26.

1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah || we have a strong city, salvation will God' appoint for | walls and | bulwarks.

2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may en ter in.

3 Thou wilt keep him in | perfect | peace whose mind is stayed on thee, because he trusteth in | thee.

4 Trust ye in the | Lord for | ever || for in the Lord Jehovah' is | ever | lasting | strength. 5 For he bringeth down them that | dwell on | high the lofty | city he | layeth - it low. 6 He layeth it low, even | to the | ground || he bringeth it | e ven to the dust.

7 The foot shall tread it | down || even the feet of the poor, and the | steps of the needy. 8 The way of the just is up rightness || | Thou most upright, dost | weigh the path of the just.

9 Yea, in the way of thy | judgments || O Lord, I have we | waited for thee.

10 The desire of our soul' is to thy | name | and to the remembrance | of | thee.

11 With my soul have I desired | thee - in the | night || yea, with my spirit within me | will I | seek thee early.

12 For when thy judgments are in the earth || the inhabitants of the | world - will learn righteousness.

13 O Lord our | God || other lords beside thee have had do | min - ion | over | us. 14 But by thee | only || will we make | mention of thy name.

From Isaiah 25.

107.

1 O Lord, thou art | my | God [ I will exalt thee, I will praise thy | name.

2 For thou hast done | wonderful | things || thy counsels of old are | faithful | ness and | truth.

3 For thou hast made a defenced | city - a | ruin a palace of strangers to be no city, it shall never be built.

4 Therefore shall the strong people | glorify | thee the city of the terrible | nations - shall fear thee.

5 For thou hast been a strength to the poor || a strength to the needy - in his distress. 6 A refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat when the blast of the terrible ones, is as a storm against the | wall.

7 Thou shalt bring down the noise of | stran gers as the heat in a dry place.

8 Even the heat with the shadow | of a | c'oud || the branch of the terrible ones | shall be brought low.

9 And in this mountain shall the | Lord of | Hosts|| make unto all people a | feast of | fat | things.

10 A feast of wines on the lees, of fat things | full of marrow || of wines on the | lees well re | fined.

11 And he will destroy | in this | mountain || the face of the covering | cast - over all people. 12 And the vail that is spread over all nations || He will swallow up | death in | vic to ry.

13 And the Lord God' will wipe away tears from off all faces || and the rebuke of his people | shall he take a ❘ way.

14 From off all the earth || for the | Lord hath spoken | it.

15 And it shall be said in that day, Lo | this is our God || we have waited for him, and he will save

us.

16 This is the Lord, we have | waited | for him | we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
