Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CXI (1767) Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the LORD, our GOD to praise,
My Soul her utmost Pow'r shall raise;
With private Friends, and in the Throng
Of Saints, his Praise shall be my Song:
Great are his Works, and sought aright
By those, who in them take Delight.
2 His Works are all of matchless Fame,
And universal Glory claim;
His Truth, confirm'd, through Ages past,
Shall to eternal Ages last.
The gracious LORD hath us enjoin'd,
To keep his wond'rous Works in Mind.
3 His Bounty, like a flowing Tide,
Has all his Servants Wants supply'd;
And he will ever keep in Mind,
His Cov'nant with our Fathers sign'd:
For us he did his Pow'r display,
To us the Heathen Lands convey.
4 Just are the Dealings of his Hands,
Immutable are his Commands;
He set his Saints from Bondage free,
And then establish'd his Decree,
For ever to remain the same;
Holy and Rev'rend is his Name!
5 Who Wisdom's sacred Prize would win,
Must with the Fear of GOD begin;
Good Understanding, heav'nly Skill
Have they, who know and do his Will:
The Praise thereof is fixed sure,
And shall for evermore endure.
