NONE is like Jeshurun's God,

By A Collection of Hymns


      7s & 6s. Deuteronomy xxxiii. 26 - 29.
      1 NONE is like Jeshurun's God,
      So great, so strong, so high,
      Lo! he spreads his wings abroad,
      He rides upon the sky!
      Israel is his first-born son;
      God, the Almighty God, is thine;
      See him to thy help come down,
      The excellence divine.

      2 Thee the great Jehovah deigns
      To succour and defend;
      Thee the eternal God sustains,
      Thy Maker and thy friend:
      Israel, what hast thou to dread?
      Safe from all impending harms,
      Round thee and beneath are spread
      The everlasting arms.

      3 God is thine; disdain to fear
      The enemy within:
      God shall in thy flesh appear,
      And make an end of sin;
      God the man of sin shall slay,
      Fill thee with triumphant joy;
      God shall thrust him out, and say,
      "Destroy them all, destroy!"

      4 All the struggle then is o'er,
      And wars and fightings cease,
      Israel then shall sin no more,
      But dwell in perfect peace;
      All his enemies are gone;
      Sin shall have in him no part;
      Israel now shall dwell alone,
      With Jesus in his heart.

      5 In a land of corn and wine
      His lot shall be below;
      Comforts there, and blessings join,
      And milk and honey flow;
      Jacob's well is in his soul;
      Gracious dew his heavens distil,
      Fill his soul, already full,
      And shall for ever fill.

      6 Blest, O Israel, art thou!
      What people is like thee?
      Saved from sin, by Jesus, now
      Thou art, and still shalt be;
      Jesus is thy seven-fold shield,
      Jesus is thy flaming sword;
      Earth, and hell, and sin, shall yield
      To God's almighty Word.
