Laws which never shall be broken for their guidance he has made. 2 In the earth let all things praise him: seas and all that they contain, stormy winds that do his pleasure, hail and lightning, snow and rain. Hills and mountains, praise your Maker; praise him, all you flocks and herds. Fields and orchards, sing his glory; praise him, creeping things and birds. 3 All you nations, come before him: earthly rulers and all kings, men and women, parents, children, join with all created things.

Psalm 148

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 160 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 148 First Line: Let every creature join Lyrics: Let every creature join To praise th' eternal God; Ye heav'nly hosts, the song begin, And sound his name abroad. Thou sun with golden beams, And moon with paler rays; Ye starry lights, ye twinkling flames, Shine to your Maker's praise. He built those worlds above, And fixed their wondrous frame; By his command they stand or move, And ever speak his name. Ye vapors, when ye rise, Or fall in showers of snow; Ye thunders, murmuring round the skies, His power and glory show. Wind, hail, and flashing fire, Agree to praise the Lord, When ye in dreadful storms conspire To execute his word. By all his works above His honors be expressed; But saints that taste his saving love Should sing his praises best. Let earth and ocean know They owe their Maker praise; Praise him, ye wat'ry worlds below, And monsters of the seas. From mountains near the sky Let his high praise resound; From humble shrubs and cedars high, And vales and fields around. Ye lions of the wood, And tamer beasts that graze, Ye live upon his daily food, And he expects your praise. Ye birds of lofty wing, On high his praises bear; Or sit on flowery boughs, and sing Your Maker's glory there. Ye creeping ants and worms, His various wisdom show, And flies, in all your shining swarms, Praise him that dressed you so. By all the earth-born race His honors be expressed; But saints, that know his heav'nly grace Should learn to praise him best. Monarchs of wide command, Praise ye th' eternal King; Judges, adore that sovereign hand Whence all your honors spring. Let vig'rous youth engage To sound his praises high: While growing babes, and with'ring age, Their feebler voices try. United zeal be shown His wondrous fame to raise: God is the Lord; his name alone Deserves our endless praise. Let nature join with art, And all pronounce him blest; But saints, that dwell so near his heart, Should sing his praises best.

Psalm 148

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 173 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 148 First Line: Ye tribes of Adam, join Lyrics: Ye tribes of Adam, join With heav'n, and earth, and seas, And offer notes divine To your Creator's praise: Ye holy throng Of angels bright, In worlds of light, Begin the song. Thou sun with dazzling rays, And moon that rules the night, Shine to your Maker's praise, With stars of twinkling light: His power declare, Ye floods on high, And clouds that fly In empty air. The shining worlds above In glorious order stand, Or in swift courses move, By his supreme command: He spake the word, And all their frame From nothing came, To praise the Lord. He moved their mighty wheels In unknown ages past, And each his word fulfils While time and nature last: In diff'rent ways His works proclaim His wondrous name, And speak his praise. Let all the earth-born race, And monsters of the deep The fish that cleave the seas, Or in their bosom sleep; From sea and shore Their tribute pay, And still display Their Maker's power. Ye vapors, hail, and snow, Praise ye th' almighty Lord, And stormy winds that blow, To execute his word: When lightnings shine, Or thunders roar, Let earth adore His hand divine. Ye mountains near the skies, With lofty cedars there, And trees of humbler size, That fruit in plenty bear; Beasts wild and tame, Birds, flies, and worms, In various forms, Exalt his name. Ye kings and judges, fear The Lord, the sovereign King; And while you rule us here, His heav'nly honors sing; Nor let the dream Of power and state Make you forget His power supreme. Virgins and youths, engage To sound his praise divine, While infancy and age Their feebler voices join: Wide as he reigns His name be sung By every tongue In endless strains. Let all the nations fear The God that rules above; He brings his people near, And makes them taste his love: While earth and sky Attempt his praise, His saints shall raise His honors high.

Psalm 148 Paraphrased

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 118 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 148 First Line: Loud hallelujahs to the Lord Lyrics: Loud hallelujahs to the Lord, From distant worlds where creatures dwell; Let heav'n begin the solemn word, And sound it dreadful down to hell. The Lord, how absolute he reigns! Let every angel bend the knee; Sing of his love in heav'nly strains, And speak how fierce his terrors be. High on a throne his glories dwell, An awful throne of shining bliss; Fly through the world, O sun! and tell How dark thy beams compared to his. Awake, ye tempests, and his fame In sounds of dreadful praise declare; And the sweet whisper of his name Fill every gentler breeze of air. Let clouds, and winds, and waves agree To join their praise with blazing fire; Let the firm earth and rolling sea In this eternal song conspire. Ye flowery plains, proclaim his skill; Valleys, lie low before his eye; And let his praise from every hill Rise tuneful to the neighb'ring sky. Ye stubborn oaks, and stately pines, Bend your high branches and adore: Praise him, ye beasts, in diff'rent strains; The lamb must bleat, the lion roar. Birds, ye must make his praise your theme; Nature demands a song from you; While the dumb fish that cut the stream Leap up, and mean his praises too. Mortals, can you refrain your tongue, When nature all around you sings? O for a shout from old and young, From humble swains and lofty kings! Wide as his vast dominion lies Make the Creator's name be known; Loud as his thunder shout his praise, And sound it lofty as his throne. Jehovah! 'tis a glorious word: O may it dwell on every tongue! But saints, who best have known the Lord, Are bound to raise the noblest song. Speak of the wonders of that love Which Gabriel plays on every chord: From all below, and all above, Loud hallelujahs to the Lord! Each of his works his name displays But they can ne'er fulfil the praise.

Begin, my soul, the exalted lay

Author: Ogilvie Appears in 210 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 148 Lyrics: 1 Begin, my soul, the exalted lay; Let each enraptured thought obey, And praise the Almighty name; Lo! heaven, and earth, and seas, and skies, In one melodious concert rise, To swell the inspiring theme. 2 Thou heaven of heavens, his vast abode, Ye clouds, proclaim your Maker, God; Ye thunders, speak his power; Lo! on the lightning's fiery wing In triumph rides the eternal King The astonished worlds adore. 3 Ye deeps, with roaring billows, rise To join the thunders of the skies; Praise him who bids you roll; His praise in softer notes declare, Each whispering breeze of yielding air, And breathe it to the soul.
