2 O haste victorious Prince ! O may it bless our longing eyes, 3 All hail! exalted Priest! PSALM CXI. L. M. 1 Praise ye the Lord-our God to praise My soul her utmost pow'rs shall raise ; With private friends, and in the throng Of saints, his praise shall be my song. 2 His works are all of matchless fame, His truth, confirm'd thro' ages past, 3 By precept he has us enjoin'd To keep his wond'rous works in mind, And to posterity record That" Good and gracious is the Lord"! 4 His bounty, like a flowing tide, His covenant with our Fathers sign'd. 5 He set his saints from bondage free, And then establish'd his decree, For ever to remain the same Holy and reverend is His name! PSALM CXI. Version 2. L. M. 1 My soul, with sacred zeal inspir'd, Shall wake to God the thankful strain, In secret with his saints retir'd, And 'midst fair Sion's crowded fane. 2 Great are his works-with constant aim 3 His wonders to each grateful heart 4 His love, the souls to Him allied, PSALM CXII. L. M. 1 That man is blest who fears the Lord, PSALM CXVI. C. M. 1 My soul with grateful thoughts of love Because the Lord vouchsaf'd to hear 2 Since he has now his ear inclin'd But still in all the straits of life 3 Then, free from pensive cares, my soul, Resume thy wonted rest: For God has wond'rously to thee 4 When death alarm'd me, he remov'd 5 Therefore my life's remaining years, PSALM CXVII. C. M. 1 With cheerful notes let all the earth 2 God's tender mercy knows no bound ; To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Be Glory, as it was, is now, PSALM CXVII. Version 2. L. M. 1 From all that dwell below the skies Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung Thro' every land, by ev'ry tongue. 2 Eternal are thy mercies, Lord! Eternal truth attends thy word; Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore, Till suns shall rise and set no more! PSALM CXVIII. C. M. 1 This is the day the Lord hath made, Let heav'n rejoice, let earth be glad, 2 To day He rose and left the dead, To day the saints his triumph spread, 3 Hosanna to th' anointed King! Help us, O Lord! descend, and bring 4 Hosanna, in the highest strains |
