Let ev'ry creature join
Hymnal: DWIP1790 #331 (1790) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Let ev'ry creature join
To praise th' eternal God;
Ye heav'nly hosts, the song begin,
And sound his name abroad.
2 Thou sun with golden beams,
And moon with paler rays;
Ye starry lights, ye twinkling flames,
Shine to your Maker's praise.
3 He built those worlds above,
And fix'd their wond'rous frame;
By his command they stand or move,
And ever speak his name.
4 Ye vapours, when ye rise,
Or fall in show'rs of snow;
Ye thunders, murm'ring round the skies,
His pow'r and glory show.
5 Wind, hail, and flashing fire,
Agree to praise the Lord,
When ye in dreadful storms conspire
To execute his word.
6 By all his works above
His honors be exprest;
But saints that taste his saving love,
Should sing his praises best.
Pause 1.
7 Let earth and ocean know
They owe their Maker praise;
Praise him, ye wat'ry worlds below,
And monsters of the seas.
8 From mountains near the sky
Let his high praise resound,
From humble shrubs and cedars high,
And vales and fields around.
9 Ye lions of the wood,
And tamer beasts that graze,
Ye live upon his daily food,
And he expects your praise.
10 Ye birds of lofty wing,
On high his praises bear;
Or sit on flow'ry boughs, and sing
Your Maker's glory there.
11 Ye creeping ants and worms,
His various wisdom show,
And flies, in all your shining swarms,
Praise him that dress'd you so.
12 By all the earth born race
His honors be exprest;
But saints that know his heav'nly grace,
Should learn to praise him best.
Pause 2
13 Monarchs of wide command,
Praise ye th' eternal King;
Judges, adore that sov'reign hand
Whence all your honors spring.
14 Let vig'rous youth engage
To sound his praises high;
While growing babes, and with'ring age,
Their feebler voices try.
15 United zeal be shown
His wond'rous fame to raise;
God is the Lord: his name alone
Deserves our endless praise.
16 Let nature join with art,
And all pronounce him blest:
But saints that dwell so near his heart,
Should sing his praises best. Scripture: Psalm 148 Languages: English
Let ev'ry creature join
All ye that love the Lord rejoice
Hymnal: DWIP1790 #333 (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 All ye that love the Lord rejoice,
And let your songs be new;
Amidst the church with cheerful voice
His later wonders shew.
2 The Jews, the people of his grace,
Shall their Redeemer sing:
And Gentile nations join the praise,
While Zion owns her King.
3 The Lord takes pleasure in the just,
Whom sinners treat with scorn;
The meek that lie despis'd in dust,
Salvation shall adorn.
4 Saints should be joyful in their King,
Ev'n on a dying bed:
And like the souls in glory sing,
For God shall raise the dead.
5 Then his high praise shall fill their tongues,
Their hands shall wield the sword:
And vengeance shall attend their songs,
The vengeance of the Lord.
6 When Christ the judgment seat ascends,
And bids the world appear,
Thrones are prepar'd for all his friends
Who humbly lov'd him here.
7 Then shall they rule with iron rod
Nations that dar'd rebel;
And join the sentence of their God
On tyrants doom'd to hell.
8 The royal sinners bound in chains
New triumphs shall afford;
Such honor for the saints remains;
Praise ye and love the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 149 Languages: English
All ye that love the Lord rejoice
In God's own house pronounce his praise
Hymnal: DWIP1790 #334 (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 In God's own house pronounce his praise,
His grace he there reveals;
To heav'n your joy and wonder raise,
For there his glory dwells.
2 Let all your sacred passions move,
While you rehearse his deeds;
But the great work of saving love
Your highest praise exceeds.
3 All that have motion, life, and breath,
Proclaim your Maker blest;
Yet, when my voice expires in death,
My soul shall praise him best. Scripture: Psalm 150:1-2 Languages: English
In God's own house pronounce his praise
