For thou with blessings him prevent'st of goodness manifold; And thou hast set upon his head a crown of purest gold.
He of my mercy that is God betimes shall me prevent; Upon mine en'mies God shall let me see mine heart's content.
How great's the goodness thou for them that fear thee keep'st in store, And wrought'st for them that trust in thee the sons of men before!
They me prevented in the day of my calamity; But even then the Lord himself a stay was unto me.
In thy salvation we will joy; in our God's name we will Display our banners: and the Lord thy prayers all fulfil.
