Chapter 44

39. PRAISE TO GOD. Psalm 148.(notes)Praise ye the Lord. Ye Angels, give him praiseAnd all his hosts throughout the heav'ns on high;Both sun and moon, and stars that fill the sky,For his command made all your lights to blaze.Let all earth's hosts their voices loud upraise;Ye mountains proud that human feet defy,And dragons which in ocean-deeps do lie;Fire, hail, and vapors, tempests that amazeThe seaman in his barque; the drifting snow;All lofty cedars and each fruitful tree;The fowl that fly, and beasts that creep below;All kings and people, old and young, come ye,And praise God's name, all glorious, good, and great,—God's name, in majesty o'er all elate!

39. PRAISE TO GOD. Psalm 148.(notes)

Praise ye the Lord. Ye Angels, give him praiseAnd all his hosts throughout the heav'ns on high;Both sun and moon, and stars that fill the sky,For his command made all your lights to blaze.Let all earth's hosts their voices loud upraise;Ye mountains proud that human feet defy,And dragons which in ocean-deeps do lie;Fire, hail, and vapors, tempests that amazeThe seaman in his barque; the drifting snow;All lofty cedars and each fruitful tree;The fowl that fly, and beasts that creep below;All kings and people, old and young, come ye,And praise God's name, all glorious, good, and great,—God's name, in majesty o'er all elate!

Praise ye the Lord. Ye Angels, give him praise

And all his hosts throughout the heav'ns on high;

Both sun and moon, and stars that fill the sky,

For his command made all your lights to blaze.

Let all earth's hosts their voices loud upraise;

Ye mountains proud that human feet defy,

And dragons which in ocean-deeps do lie;

Fire, hail, and vapors, tempests that amaze

The seaman in his barque; the drifting snow;

All lofty cedars and each fruitful tree;

The fowl that fly, and beasts that creep below;

All kings and people, old and young, come ye,

And praise God's name, all glorious, good, and great,—

God's name, in majesty o'er all elate!
