Ye That Delight To Serve The Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13252 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye that delight to serve the Lord, The honors of His name record, His sacred name for ever bless; Where’er the circling sun displays His rising beams, or setting rays, Let lands and seas His power confess. 2 Not time, nor nature’s narrow rounds, Can give His vast dominion bounds, The heav’ns are far below His height: Let no created greatness dare With our eternal God compare, Armed with His uncreated might. 3 He bows His glorious head to view What the bright hosts of angels do, And bends His care to mortal things; His sovereign hand exalts the poor, He takes the needy from the door, And makes them company for kings. 4 When childless families despair, He sends the blessing of an heir, To rescue their expiring name; The mother, with a thankful voice, Proclaims His praises and her joys: Let every age advance His fame.
