Psalm 104

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: How manifold your works, O Lord Lyrics: 1. How manifold your works, O Lord, In wisdom, pow'r, and goodness wrought! The earth is with your riches stored, And ocean with your wonders fraught: Unfathomed caves beneath the deep For you their hidden treasures keep. 2. There go the ships, with sails unfurled, By you directed on their way; There in its own mysterious world Leviathan delights to play; And wondrous beasts, immense in size, Unseen by us but meet your eyes. 3. By you alone the living live; Hide but your face, your comforts fly; They gather what the seasons give, But take away their breath, they die; Send forth your Spirit from above, And all is life again, and love. 4. Joy in his works Jehovah takes, Yet to destruction they return; He looks upon the Earth, it quakes, Touches the mountains and they burn; God, you forever are the same; I AM is your unchanging name.

Loving-kindness, loving-kindness, His loving-kindness, oh, how great! 3 Though num'rous hosts of mighty foes, Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along, His loving-kindness, oh, how strong! Loving-kindness, loving-kindness, His loving-kindness, oh, how strong! 4 When trouble like a gloomy cloud, Has gathered thick and thundered loud, He near my soul has always stood, His loving-kindness, oh, how good! Loving-kindness, loving-kindness, His loving-kindness, oh, how good! 5 Soon I shall pass the gloomy vale, Soon all my mortal pow'rs must fail; Oh, may my last expiring breath His loving-kindness sing in death. Loving-kindness, loving-kindness, His loving-kindness sing in death. 6 Then let me mount and soar away To the bright world of endless day; And sing with raptures and surprise, His loving-kindness in the skies. Loving-kindness, loving-kindness, His loving-kindness in the skies.
