Dr. Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David ‎#243

243. Great is the Lord! his works of might

1 Great is the Lord; his works of might
Demand our noblest songs;
Let his assembled saints unite
Their harmony of tongues.

2 Great is the mercy of the Lord;
He gives his children food;
And, ever mindful of his word,
He makes his promise good.

3 His son, the great Redeemer, came
To seal his cov'nant sure;
Holy and rev'rend is his name,
His ways are just and pure.

4 They that would grow divinely wise,
Must with his fear begin;
Our fairest proof of knowledge lies
In hating ev'ry sin.
