PSALM C.. First Version, MERRICK.

A Song of Praise

PRAE

RAISE, O praise, the Nanc divine ;

Praise it at the hallow'd Shrine;
Let the Firmament on high
To its Maker's Praise reply :
Let his Acts, and Pow'r supreme,

To your Songs fuggest a Theme: 2 Be the Harp no longer mute;

Sound the Trumpet, touch the Lute;
Wake to Life each tuneful "String :
Bring the Pipe, the Timbrel bring;
Let the Organ in his Praise

Learn its loudest Note to raise;
3 And the Cymbal's varying Sound

From the vaulted Roof rebound;
All who vital Breath enjoy,
In his Praise that Breath employ,
And in one great Chorus join;
Praise, O praise the Name divine.

PSALM CL. Second Verfion. TATE,

Which he in our Behalf has done ::

With which our Praise should equal tun. 3. Let all that vital Breath enjoy,

The Breath he does to them afford,
In just Returns of Praise employ;
Let ev'ry Creature praise the Lord.

PSALM CL. Third Version. Watts.

N God's own House pronounce bis Praise,
To Heav'n your Joy and Wonder raise,

For there his Glory dwells.

While you rehearse his Deeds; But the great Work of saving Love

PSALM CL. Fourth Version. STEBLE.
RAISE ye the Lord; let Praise employ

In his own Courts, your Songs of Joy;
The spacious Firmament around

Shall echo back the joyful Sound.
2 Recount his works in Strains divine ;

His wond'rous Works how bright they shine ?
Praise him for his almighty Deeds,

Whose Greatness all your Praise exceeds. 3 [Awake the Trumpet's piercing Sound,

To spread your sacred Pleasures round;
While sweeter Music tunes the Lute,

The warbling Harp, and breathing Flute. 4 Ye Virgin Train with Joy advance

To praise him in the graceful Dance;
To praise awake each tuneful String,
And to the solemn Organ sing.
Let the loud Cymbal founding high,
To softer, deeper Notes reply;
Harmonious let the Concert rise,
And bear the Rapture to the Skies.]

Attend, and join the blissful Choir;
But chiefly you who know his Word,
Adore, and love, and praise the Lord,

At length ye thoughtless Men your Wants

Awake, my Soul, to Hymns of Praise
Awake to praife, my Soul, and fing,
Awake, ye Saints, to praise your King
