Lyrics
Praise ye the Lord; for it is good praise to our God to sing:
For it is pleasant, and to praise it is a comely thing.
2 God doth build up Jerusalem; and he it is alone
That the dispers'd of Israel doth gather into one.
3 Those that are broken in their heart, and grieved in their minds,
He healeth, and their painful wounds he tenderly up-binds.
4 He counts the number of the stars; he names them ev'ry one.
5 Great is our Lord, and of great pow'r; his wisdom search can none.
6 The Lord lifts up the meek; and casts the wicked to the ground.
7 Sing to the Lord, and give him thanks; on harp his praises sound;
8 Who covereth the heav'n with clouds, who for the earth below
Prepareth rain, who maketh grass upon the mountains grow.
9 He gives the beast his food, he feeds the ravens young that cry.
10 His pleasure not in horses' strength, nor in man's legs, doth lie.
11 But in all those that do him fear the Lord doth pleasure take;
In those that to his mercy do by hope themselves betake.
12 The Lord praise, O Jerusalem; Sion, thy God confess:
13 For thy gates' bars he maketh strong; thy sons in thee doth bless.
14 He in thy borders maketh peace; with fine wheat filleth thee.
15 He sends forth his command on earth, his word runs speedily.
16 Hoar-frost, like ashes, scatt'reth he; like wool he snow doth give:
17 Like morsels casteth forth his ice; who in its cold can live?
18 He sendeth forth his mighty word, and melteth them again;
His wind he makes to blow, and then the waters flow amain.
19 The doctrine of his holy word to Jacob he doth show;
His statutes and his judgments he gives Israel to know.
20 To any nation never he such favour did afford;
For they his judgments have not known. O do ye praise the Lord.
Psalm 148
First version (C.M.)
1 Praise God. From heavens praise the Lord, in heights praise to him be.
2 All ye his angels, praise ye him; his hosts all, praise him ye.
3 O praise ye him, both sun and moon, praise him, all stars of light.
4 Ye heav'ns of heav'ns him praise, and floods above the heavens' height.
5 Let all the creatures praise the name of our almighty Lord:
For he commanded, and they were created by his word.
6 He also, for all times to come, hath them establish'd sure;
He hath appointed them a law, which ever shall endure.
7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, dragons, and ev'ry deep:
8 Fire, hail, snow, vapour, stormy wind, his word that fully keep.
9 All hills and mountains, fruitful trees, and all ye cedars high:
10 Beasts, and all cattle, creeping things, and all ye birds that fly.
11 Kings of the earth, all nations, princes, earth's judges all:
12 Both young men, yea, and maidens too, old men, and children small.
13 Let them God's name praise; for his name alone is excellent:
His glory reacheth far above the earth and firmament.
14 His people's horn, the praise of all his saints, exalteth he;
Ev'n Isr'el's seed, a people near to him. The Lord praise ye.
