My Soul, Jehovah bless; my God

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1. My Soul, Jehovah bless; my God, Thy Greatness knows no Bounds; Unrivall'd Honours compass Thee, Thee Majesty surrounds. 2. Who hast array'd thyself, with Light As with a splendid Robe; The beauteous Heav'ns, thy royal Tent, Hast stretch'd beyond the Globes. 3. His Palace Beams in fluid Air, Who lays, and firmly binds; The Clouds his Chariot form'd; and walks On Wings of rapids Winds Spirits his Angels, Flames of Fire His Ministers, he makes. 5 The Earth he founded on it's Base, Which from it's Place ne'er shakes. 6. Thou, as a Garment, o'er the Earth, Did'st spread the mighty Flood; Above the Mountains loftiest Heads, The rowling Waters stood. 7. At thy Rebuke, thy Thunder's Voice, They hasted, and they fled; 8. The Mountains rose, the Valleys sunk; To their appointed Bed. 9. Thou there, to Bounds unpassable, Confin'st the wat'ry Main; That it should never more return. To cover Earth again. Second Part 10. He sendeth Springs into the Vales; Which from the Mountains burst. 11. There ev'ry Field-Beast drinks his Fill, Wild Asses quench their Thirst. 12. The Birds dwell there; among the Sprigs, They tune their chearful Voice. 13. The Hills he watereth from his Clouds; Thy Fruits the Earth rejoice. 14. He makes the Grass to grow for Beasts, And Herbs for Humane Use; That he, abundant Food for all, May from the Earth produce. 15.Thence springs the gen'rous Wine, rich Juice, The Heart of Man, that chears; The Oyl, which makes his Face to shine, And Bread, which Strength repairs. 16. God's Trees abound with Sap; he set Thy Cedars, Leb'non, there: 17. Where Birds do build their Nests; her House The Stork makes in the Fir. 18. The wild Goats climb the craggy Hills, And these their Refuge make: While Rabbets, with the feebler Kind, The Rocks for Shelter take. Third Part 19. He made the Moon for stated Times, The Sun knows his fix'd Rout. 20. He Darkness makes, and it is Night; Then Forest Beasts crawl out. 21. Young Lyons roar, and hunt their Prey; From God they seek their Meat. 22. The Sun ariseth, they unite. And close in Dens retreat. 23. Man to his Work, and Culture, goes, Till th' Ev'ning gives him Rest. 24. How various Lord! how wise thy Work! Th' Earth's with thy Riches blest. 25. The Sea too, whose wide Arms contain Numberless creeping Things; With Animals both small and great, That swim by unknown Springs. 26. There pass the gallant Ships, which cut, Thro' trackless Paths, their Way; There huge Leviathan, thou mad'st; Diverts himself with Play. 27. All wait on Thee, thou in due Time, Dost give to each their Food: 28. They gather from thine open'd Hand And all are fill'd with Good. 29.If thy enliv'ning Face thou hid'st, In deep Distress they mourn; Thou takst away their Breath, they die, And to their Earth return. 30. Thy quick'ning Spirit thou send'st forth And a new Life takes Place; The Earth renew'd, with Vigour blooms, And Beauty in her Face. Fourth Part 31. Jehovah's Glory shall endure, Forevermore most bright. When God reviews his various Works, He's pleased with the Sight. 32. If he, upon this solid Earth, But cast an angry Look, It trembles; if he touch the Mounts, They vanish into Smoke. 33. Unto Jehovah I will sing. As long as I shall live; While I my Breath, and Being, have, Praise to my God I'll give. 34. This shall be grateful to the Lord, To hear my thankful Voice; While in Jehovah, and his Works, I greatly will rejoice. 35 Let Sinners fail from off the Earth, And th' Impious cease to be: My Soul, bless thou the Lord, let all To praise the Lord agree.

O Thou, my soul, Jehovah bless

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1 O Thou, my soul, Jehovah bless, Thou Lord my God most great: With majesty and comelinefs Thou cloathed art in state. 2 Who dost thy sslf with light array, As if a robe it were; Who like a curtain doth display The heav'ns every where. 3 Who doth the beams of chambers lay I'th' waters, and he makes The clouds his chariot, and his way On wings of wind he takes. 4 His ministers a fi'ry flame, His angels spirits makes. The earth he founded on her frame, So that it never shakes. 6 As with a robe thou with the deep Didst overspread the land: Aloft above the mountains steep, The waters they did stand. 7 When thou didit them rebuke, they fled Ev'n then away full fast: And at thy thunder's voice they sped Their course away in haste. 8 They up aloft by mountains past Down by the vales did go, The place for them which fix'd thou hast Until they come unto. 9 Thou hast appointed them a bound Which they may not pass o'er, That they to cover the dry ground May turn again mo more. [2] 10 Into the vales he sendeth springs, Which run among the hills: 11 Thence drink to all field beasts he brings- Wild asses drink their. fills 12 The fowls of heav'n dwell there which sing Among the springs with mirth. 13 From lofts to hills he rain doth bring Thy works fruit fills the earth. 14 For beasts the grass, and for man's good He makes the herb to spring: That what may serve them for their food He from the earth may bring. 15 And wine man's heart that maketh glad, And oyl his face to shine: And for the heart of man gives bread A strong support to find. 16 Jehovah's trees that are most strong No fill of sap do want; The cedar trees of Lebanon The which himself doth plant. 17 That so the little birds may there Upon them build their nest: As for the stork, the fir-trees are The places of her rest. 18 The hills for wild goats refuge be, The conies rocks enclose: 1 The moon for seasons made hath he, The sun his setting knows. 20 Thou darknefs mak'ft, and night comes on When wood-beasts creep out all. 2i Roar for their prey do lions young, From God for food they call. 22 The sun doth rise, they in their dens Then couch, they go aside. 23 Man to his work, and labour tends Unto the ev'ning tide. [3] 24 Thy works, O Lord, how manifold! Them all thou mad'st with skill: The earth doth of thy riches hold Abundantly her fill. 25 So doth the sea so great and wide, Wherein things creeping be Beyond all count, small beasts beside Those of great quantity. 26 There go the ships, there thou didst make Leviathan to play. 27 Their food in season to partake, All on thee waiting stay. 28 They gather that thou dost bestow, Thine hand thou open'st wide: With such things as are good, they so Are fully satisfy'd. 29 Thou hid'st thy face, they troubled are, Their breath thou tak'st away: And then they die, likewise repair Unto their dust do they. 30 Thou mak'st thy spirit forth to go They are created then: And of the earth the face also Thou dost renew again. [4] 31 The glory of Jehovah shall Last to eternity; The Lord shall in his doings all Take pleasure joyfully. 32 The earth doth fall a trembling when He thereupon doth look: The mountains he doth touch, and then Immediately they smoak. 33 I'll to the Lord sing chearfully Throughout my life always: While I a being have will I Unto my God sing praise. 34 Full sweet the meditation Of him (shall be to me: I in the EVER BEING ONE Exceeding glad will be. 35 From off the earth let sinners cease, And wicked be no more: O thou my soul, Jehovah bless, Praise ye the Lord therefore.

The Moon to run her destin'd Space

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1 The Moon to run her destin'd Space Fills her pale Orb with borro'd Rays, The appointed Sun with just Carreer Metes out the Day, the Month, the Year, His Lamp withdrawn then ravening stray Wild Beasts, outragious for their Prey' The Lion roars his wants aloud And roaring, seeks his Meat from God. 2 When from the East glows with opening Day Back to their Dens they haste away: Nor sooner are the Shades of Night Fled from the Suns returning Light, Then the strong Husbandman renews His Toil, his daily Task pursues, Till Evening calls again to rest, Both toiling Man and weary Beast. 3 How various is thy Praise display'd O Lord, in all thy Hands have made! Lost in amazement down we fall; In Wisdom thou hast made them all; How on the Earth thy Riches shower Incessant, unexhausted Store; New every Morn thy Gifts appear; Great God, thy Goodness fills the Year. 4 And yet, low other Scenes disclose! The Sea no less thy Goodness shews, Here the finn'd Race unnumber'd stray, Dive deep, or on the Surface play, Here huge Leviathan may reign Sole Tyrant of the watry Plain, He moves; the boiling Deeps divide; He breathes a Storm and spouts a Tide.

Thee, Lord, my Soul aspires to sing

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1 Thee, Lord, my Soul aspires to sing, Almighty, everlasting King, Creator! wondrous to survey Thy works excite the grateful Lay, From thy bright Throne beyond yon Height Spread Plains of Empyrean Light, The Spheres assume the second place, Swift moving thro' th' Eternal Space. 2 Beneath more close compacted lie The Regions of th' inferior Sky, Here float the Clouds, the Thunders roil, And Tempest whirl from Pole to Pole, Here thy obedient Spirits find the Stores of Vengeance for Mankind; And pleas'd thy Orders to perform Lance the hot Bolt, or drive the Storm. 3 Till thou restrain'd it like a Robe The deep involv'd the shapeless Globe; And now tho' the proud Surges rise, Range the wide wast, and threat the Skies, Fix'd is their Bound, their Tumults end; Yet where thou bidst the Main extend, Awed by thy Voice aloof they roar, Or gently leave th'uninjured shore. 4 Mean while the piercing Liquid strains Thro' the tall Mountains secret Veins; Thence down the silver Currents flow And wander thro' the Vales below, And while their Streams fresh Moisture yield To the dry Cattle of the Field, Lo, Trees project their Branches fair And lodge the Songsters of the air.

These all own thy paternal Care

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1 These all own thy paternal Care, In thee they live and move and are! The copius Good thy Hand bestows Enjoy, and praise thee as it flows. But thy blest Influence once withdrawn, No more Joy, Light of Comfort dawn; Dire Pain succeeds the sad Decay, And Death demands his destin'd Prey. 2 Yet unimpair'd the Species all Stand, while the Individuals fall; Thy timely Care each Chasm supplies, One rising as another dies. hence thro' the whole Creation known, Still shall thy Guardian Power be shown Till as thy word devouring Flame Consume the universal Frame. 3 Ev;n in the lov'd that dreadful Day When Earth and Heav'n shall melt away, Thou still, my soul, shalt sound abroad Praise to thy Father, and thy God.

"Thro' all the Earth thy Glories shine, Thy Works pronounce thy Power divine: To their full growth by just Degrees Majestick rise the forest Trees Up to the clouds their Arms they throw, Their Roots the Center seek below. 3 The Nations of the feather'd kind Here hospitable Shelter find The Stork in the Fir Tress height Here leaves her Brood, and wings her Flight, And where their shadowy Gloom they throw Wide waving o'er the Mountains Brow Earth's feebler Tribes rejoice to share Thy tender Love and guardian Care.
