Hymnal: Psalms #111a (1793) Hymnal Title: Psalms First Line: Songs of immortal praise belong Lyrics: 1 Songs of immortal praise belong
To my Almighty God;
He has my heart, and he my tongue
To spread his name abroad.
2 How great the works his hands has wrought!
How glorious in our sight!
And men in ev'ry age have sought
His wonders with delight.
3 How fair and beauteous nature's frame!
How wise the eternal mind!
His counsels never change the scheme
That his first thoughts design'd.
4 When he redeem'd his chosen sons,
He fix'd his cov'nant sure;
The orders that his lips pronounce,
To endless years endure.
5 Nature and time, and earth and skies,
Thy heav'nly skill proclaim;
What shall we do to make us wise,
But learn to read thy name?
6 To fear thy pow'r, to trust thy grace,
Is our divinest skill!
And he's the wisest of our race
That best obeys thy will. Scripture: Psalm 111 Languages: English
