The Lord of heav'n confess
Laudate Dominum
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Give laud unto the Lord Lyrics: 1 Give laud unto the Lord,
From heaven that is so hie:
Praise him in deed and word
Above the starrie skie
2 And also ye
His angels all,
Armies royall,
Praise him with glee.
3 Praise him both Moone and Sun,
Which are so cleare and bright:
The same of you be done,
Ye glittering starres of light:
4 And ye no lesse,
Ye heavens faire,
5 And clouds of the aire,
His praise expresse.
6 For at his word they were,
All formed as we see:
At his voice did appeare
All things in their degree,
Which he set fast,
To them he made
A law and trade
for aye to last.
7 Extol and praise Gods Name
On earth ye Dragons fell:
All deeps do ye the same,
For it becomes you well.
8 Him magnifie,
Fire, haile, ice, snow,
And stormes that blow
At his decree.
9 The hills and mountaines all,
and trees that fruitfull are,
The Cedars great and tall,
His worthy praise declare.
10 Beasts and cattel,
Yea birds flying,
And worms creeping,
That on earth dwell.
11 All Kings both more and lesse,
With all their pompous traine;
Princes and all Judges
That in the world remaine,
Exalt his Name:
12 Young men and maids,
Old men and babes,
Do ye the same.
13 For his Name shall we prove
To be most excellent,
Whose praise is farre above
the earth and firmament.
14 For sure he shall
Exalt with blisse
The horn of his,
And help them all.
15 His Saints all shall forth tell
his praise and worthinesse:
The children of Israel,
each one both more and lesse,
16 And also they
That with good will
His words fulfill,
And him obey.
Scripture: Psalm 148 Used With Tune: [Give laud unto the Lord]
