Refrain: Bless Him, ye angels, wondrous in might, Bless Him, His servants that in His will delight. 2 Good is the Lord and full of kind compassion, Most slow to anger, plenteous in love; Rich is His grace to all that humbly seek Him, Boundless and endless as the heav'ns above.

[Refrain] 5 High in the heav'ns His throne is fixed forever, His kingdom rules o'er all from pole to pole; Bless ye the Lord thro' all His wide dominion, Bless His most holy Name, O thou my soul.

Psalm 14 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: Sin universal First Line: Fools in their heart believe and say Lyrics: Fools in their heart believe and say "That all religion's vain; There is no God that reigns on high, Or minds th' affairs of men." From thoughts so dreadful and profane, Corrupt discourse proceeds; And in their impious hands are found Abominable deeds. The Lord from his celestial throne Looked down on things below, To find the man that sought his grace, Or did his justice know. By nature all are gone astray, Their practice all the same; There's none that fears his Maker's hand; There's none that loves his name. Their tongues are used to speak deceit, Their slanders never cease; How swift to mischief are their feet, Nor know the paths of peace! Such seeds of sin (that bitter root) In every heart are found; Nor can they bear diviner fruit, Till grace refine the ground. Scripture: Psalm 14

Dost thou not dwell among the just? And yet our foes deride, That we should make thy name our trust; Great God! confound their pride. O that the joyful day were come To finish our distress! When God shall bring his children home Our songs shall never cease. Scripture: Psalm 14
