Praise the Lord with one consent

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #135 (1789) Hymnal Title: The Psalms of David Lyrics: 1 Praise the Lord with one consent, Magnify his holy name; Let the servants of the Lord Still his worthy praise proclaim. 2 Praise him, ye that in his house, Wait with never-ceasing care; Praise him, ye that to his courts With religious zeal repair. 3 This our truest int'rest is Joyful hymns of praise to sing; With loud songs to bless his name, Is a most delightful thing. 4 God his own peculiar choice Doth the sons of Jacob make; Israel's num'rous offspring too, For his treasure he doth take. 5 That he's great, we often have By our glad experience found; We have seen, that he with pow'r, Far above all gods, is crown'd. Part II> 6 Great is the Lord, exalted high Above all pow'rs and ev'ry throne; Whate'er he please in earth or sea, Or heav'n or hell, his hand hath done. 7 At his command the vapours rise, The lightnings flash, the thunders roar; He pours the rain, he brings the wind And tempest from his airy store. 8 'Twas he those dreadful tokens sent, O Egypt, thro' thy stubborn land; When all thy first-born, beasts and men, Fell dead by his avenging hand. 9 What mighty nations, mighty kings He slew, and their whole country gave To Isr'el, whom his hand redeem'd, No more to be proud Pharaoh's slave! 10 His pow'r the same, the same his grace, That saves us from the hosts of hell; And heav'n he gives us to possess, Whence those apostate angels fell. Part III. 11 The Lord is good; and works unknown Are his divine employ: But still his saints are near his throne, His treasure and his joy. 12 All pow'r that gods or kings have claim'd, Is found with him alone; But heathen gods should ne’er be nam'd Where our Jehovah’s known. 13 Which of the stocks or stones they trust Can give them show'rs of rain? In vain they worship glitt'ring dust, And pray to God in vain. 14 Their gods have tongues that speechless prove, Such as their makers gave; Their feet were never form'd to move, Nor hands have pow'r to save. 15 Blind are their eyes, their ears are deaf, Nor hear when mortals pray; Mortals that wait for their relief, Are blind and deaf as they. 16 Ye servants of the living God, Adore with faith and fear; He makes the churches his abode, And claims thine honours there.

Praise the LORD with one Consent

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CXXXV (1767) Hymnal Title: The Psalms of David Lyrics: 1 Praise the LORD with one Consent, Magnify his holy Name; Let the Servants of the LORD Still his worthy Praise proclaim. 2 Praise him, ye that in his House, Wait with never-ceasing Care; Praise him, ye that to his Courts With religious Zeal repair. 3 This our truest Int'rest is Joyful Hymns of Praise to sing; With loud Songs to bless his Name, Is a most delightful Thing. 4 GOD his own peculiar Choice Doth the Sons of Jacob make; Israel's num'rous Offspring too, For his Treasure he doth take. 5 That he's great, we often have By our glad Experience found; We have seen that he with Pow'r, Far above all Gods, is crown'd. 6 For with unresisted Strength, He performs his sov'reign Will; Thro' Heav'n, Earth, and the Stores Which the deepest Caverns fill. 7 Vapours from the Ground he lifts, Which, though poiz'd in liquid Air, Fall at last in Show'rs through which His tremendous Lightnings glare. 8 From his Stores he brings the Wind; And with his avenging Hand, Smote at once, of Man and Beast, The First-born through Egypt's Land. 9 He dread Signs and Wonders shew'd, Throughout stubborn Egypt's Coast; Plagues on haughty Pharaoh sent, And on all his num'rous Host. 10 He the Heathen Nations smote, Mighty Monarchs he suppress'd; Sihon, Og, and all besides, Who rich Canaan's Land possess'd. 11 Then, upon his chosen Race, All their Land he did entail; Therefore shall his Glory last, And his praise shall never fail. 12 For the LORD his People's Cause Shall with pitying Eyes survey; And, repenting of his Wrath, Turn his kindled Rage away. 13 Idols, whose false Worship spreads Over all the Heathen Lands, Made of Silver and of Gold, Are the Work of human Hands. 14 They have Tongues, but cannot speak, Useless are their polish'd Eyes; They have Ears, and yet they're deaf, And no Breath their Moth supplies. 15 Senseless, as themselves, are they, Who their utmost Skill apply, First to frame them, and when fram'd, On their Work for Aid rely. 16 But their just Returns to GOD, Still let grateful Israel pay; Let the Priests of Aaron's Race, Bless the LORD without Delay. 17 Of his Love, let Levi's House, Their most pious Sense express; Let all those that fear the LORD, His great Name for ever bless. 18 Oh, let all in Sin's Courts His amazing Works proclaim; And in Salem, where he dwells, Still exalt his holy Name.
