When once the fowler's snare is broke
Forever blessed be the Lord,
Who broke the fowlcr's cursed snare;
who ssy'd us from the murdring sword,
And made our liyes aud souls bis care.
Our help is in JEHovAn's name,
Who form'd the earth, and built the skies;
he, who upholds that wond'rous frame,
Guards Nations with his watchful eyes
