Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #260 (1786) Topics: Seasons of the year; Seasons of the year First Line: Let Zion praise the mighty God Lyrics: 1 Let Zion praise thy mighty God,
And make his honours known abroad;
For sweet the joy, our songs to raise,
And glorious is the work of praise.
2 Our children live secure and blest;
Our shores have peace, our cities rest;
He feeds our sons with finest wheat,
And adds his blessing to their meat.
3 The changing seasons he ordains,
The early and the latter rains;
His flakes of snow like wool he sends,
And thus the springing corn defends.
4 With hoary frost he strews the ground:
His hail descends with dreadful sound:
The icy bands the rivers hold,
And terror arms his wintry cold.
5 He bids the southern breezes blow;
The ice dissolves, the waters flow:
But he hath nobler works and ways
To call his people to his praise.
6 Thro' all our realm his laws are shown;
His gospel through the nation known;
He hath not thus reveal'd his word
To every land: praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 147 Languages: English
Summer and Winter
