Ye boundless realms of joy

Appears in 161 hymnals Topics: Universal Praise Lyrics: 1 Ye boundless realms of joy, Exalt your Maker's fame; His praise your song employ Above the starry frame; Your voices raise, ye Cherubim And Seraphim, to sing his praise. 2 Thou moon, that rul'st the night, And sun, that guid'st the day, Ye glitt'ring stars of light, To him your homage pay: His praise declare, ye heav'ns above, And clouds that move in liquid air. 3 Let them adore the Lord, And praise his holy name, By whose almighty word They all from nothing came; And all shall last, from changes free; His firm decree stands ever fast. 4 Let earth her tribute pay, Praise him ye dreadful whales, And fish that through the sea Glide swift with glitt'ring scales; Fire, hail, and snow, and misty air, And winds that, where he bids them, blow. 5 By hills and mountains, all In grateful concert join'd; By cedars stately tall, And trees for fruit design'd; By ev'ry beast, and creeping thing, And fowl of wing, his name be blest. 6 Let all of royal birth, With those of humbler frame, And judges of the earth, His matchless praise proclaim: In this design, let youths with maids, And hoary heads with children join. 7 United zeal be shown, His wondrous fame to raise, Whose glorious name alone Deserves our endless praise: Earth's utmost ends his power obey; His glorious sway the sky transcends. 8 His chosen saints to grace, He sets them up on high, And favours Israel's race, Who still to him are nigh: O therefore raise your grateful voice, And still rejoice the Lord to praise. Scripture: Psalm 148
