[Verse] - Cho.
My trembling song awake arise
And early tell thy tunefull tale
Ritor
[A solo]
Tell the great Master that the night is gone
The feeble Phantomes disappear
And now the new years welcome Sun
O’respreads the Eastern skies
Ritor
Cho:
He smiles on ev’ry hill
He smiles on ev’ry vale
His glorys fill our Hemisphere
Ritor
Tell me Apollo greats him well
And with his fellow Wanderers agrees
To reward all his Labors and Lengthen his days
In spite of the politick follys of Hell
Verse solus
Tell him a Crown of thorns no more shall his sacred temples gore
For all the Rigors of his Life are o’re
Wondrous Prince design’d to show
What noble minds can truly undergoe
You are our wonder you our Love
Earth from beneath & Heav’n from above
Call aloud for songs of Triumph & of praise
Their voices and their souls they Raise
Cho:
IĂ´ Paen now we sing
Long live the King, Long live the King
[Ritor]
Rise mighty Monarch and ascend the Throne;
’Tis yet once more your owne
For Lucifer and all his Legions are O’rethrown
Son of the morning first born son of Light
How wert thou Tumbled headlong down
Into the Dungeon of Eternall Night
While the Loyall Stars of the Celestiall Quire
Surrounded with augmented Beams
Mingle their unpolluted flames
Their just Creator they admire
Ritor
With awfull Reverence they adore him
Cover their faces and fall down before him
And Night and Day for ever Sing
Hosanna Allelujah to th’almighty King
