98c. To Our Almighty Maker

To Our Almighty Maker (Part 1)
1 To our Almighty Maker, God,
New honors be addressed;
His great salvation shines abroad,
And makes the nations bless'd.

2 You spoke the Word to Abraham first;
His truth fulfils the grace;
The Gentiles make His Name their trust,
And learn His righteousness.

3 Let the whole earth His love proclaim
With all her diff'rent tongues,
And spread the honors of His Name
In melody and songs.

Psalm 98 Joy to the World (Part 2)
1 Joy to the world! the LORD is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,
And heav'n and nature sing.

2 Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ,
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy.

3 No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.

4 He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love.
