PSALM 111. Second Part. (C. M.) The Perfections of God.
I
Great is the Lord; his works of mightDemand our noblest songs;
Let his assembled saints unite
Their harmony of tongues.
II
Great is the mercy of the Lord,He gives his children food;
And ever mindful of his word,
He makes his promise good.
III
His Son, the great Redeemer, cameTo seal his covenant sure:
Holy and reverend is his name,
His ways are just and pure.
IV
They that would grow divinely wiseMust with his fear begin;
Our fairest proof of knowledge lies
In hating every sin.
