Earth! from all thy depths below,
Ocean's hallelujahs flow;

Lightning, vapour, wind, and storm,
Hail and snow! His will perform.

;

Kings! your Sovereign serve with awe;
Judges! own His righteous law;
Princes! worship Him with fear
Bow the knee, all people here!
Let His truth by babes be told,
And His wonders by the old;
Youths and maidens! in your prime,
Learn the lays of heaven betime.

High above all height His throne,
Excellent His Name alone;
Him let all His works confess,

Him let every being bless.

PSALM CXLIX.

N.V.

(1, 2, 3, 4.)

O PRAISE ye the Lord,
Prepare your glad voice
His praise in the great
Assembly to sing :
In our great Creator
Let Israel rejoice;
And children of Sion

Be glad in their King.

Let them His great Name
Extol in the dance,
With timbrel and harp
His praises express :
Who always takes pleasure
His saints to advance,
And with His salvation
The humble to bless.

P.M.

[blocks in formation]

O PRAISE the Lord in that bless'd place, From whence His goodness largely flows; Praise Him in heaven, where He His face Unveil'd in perfect glory shows.

Praise Him for all the mighty acts

Which He in our behalf has done; His kindness this return exacts,

With which our praise should equal run.

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.

[blocks in formation]

COME, praise the Lord, come praise Him,

Within His holy seat;

In all His glories praise Him,

And His great acts repeat. As He excelleth, praise Him,

With trumpet and with flute;

With harp and psaltery praise Him,
With viol and with lute.

Upon the timbrel praise Him,
In song His praise advance;
Upon the organs praise Him,

And praise Him in the dance.
On tingling cymbals praise Him,
On cymbals loud that sound;
And let all creatures praise Him,

In whom life-breath is found.

PSALM CL.

III.

Hallelujah.

PRAISE the Lord enthroned on high;
Praise Him in His sanctity;

Praise Him for His mighty deeds;
Praise Him who in power exceeds;

Praise with trumpets, pierce the skies;
Praise with harps and psalteries;
Praise with timbrels, organs, flutes;
Praise with viols and with lutes;

Praise with silver cymbals sing;
Praise on those which loudly ring.
Angels, all of human birth,

Praise the Lord of heaven and earth.

78.

Hallelujah.
