I sing th'almighty pow'r of God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: TH1961 #106 (1961) Lyrics: 1 I sing th'almighty pow'r of God, That made the mountains rise, That spread the flowing seas abroad, And built the lofty skies, And built the lofty skies. 2 I sing the goodness of the Lord That filled the earth with food; He formed the creatures with his word, And then pronounced them good, And then pronounced them good. 3 Lord! how thy wonders are displayed Where'er I turn mine eye! If I survey the ground I tread, Or gaze upon the sky, Or gaze upon the sky! 4 There's not a plant or flower below But makes thy glories known; And clouds arise, and tempests blow, By order from thy throne, By order from thy throne. 5 Creatures as numerous as they be Are subject to thy care; There's not a place where we can flee, But God is present there, But God is present there.

My soul, bless the Lord! the Lord is most great

Hymnal: TH1961 #110 (1961) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Lyrics: 1 My soul, bless the Lord! the Lord is most great, With glory arrayed, majestic his state; The light is his garment, the skies are his shade, And over the waters his courts he has laid. 2 He rides on the clouds, the wings of the storm, The lightning and wind his mission perform; The earth he has founded her station to keep, And wrapped as a vesture about her the deep. 3 He waters the hills with rain from the skies, And plentiful grass and herbs he supplies, Supplying the cattle, and blessing man's toil With bread in abundance with wine and with oil. 4 The trees which the Lord has planted are fed, And over the earth their branches are spread; They keep in their shelter the birds of the air, The life of each creature the Lord makes his care. 5 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in his creatures for ever delight. 6 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, his Name be adored, Come, praise him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

With songs and honors sounding loud

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: TH1961 #113 (1961) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 With songs and honors sounding loud Address the Lord on high; Over the heav'ns he spreads his cloud, And waters veil the sky. 2 He sends his show'rs of blessing down To cheer the plains below; He makes the grass the mountains crown, And corn in valleys grow. 3 His steady counsels change the face Of the declining year; He bids the sun cut short his race, And wintry days appear. 4 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow, Descend and clothe the ground; The liquid streams forbear to flow, In icy fetters bound. 5 He sends his word, and melts the snow; The fields no longer mourn; He calls the warmer gales to blow, And bids the spring return. 6 The changing wind, the flying cloud, Obey his mighty word: With songs and honors sounding loud Praise ye the sovereign Lord.
