PSALM XCVIII.
SING to the Lord! oh, raise the song!Great things His power hath done;His own right hand, His holy arm,The victory hath won.
The Lord hath made His mercy knownOn every distant shore,And heathen lands at length have seenHis righteousness and power.
Oh, Israel! He hath called to mindHis love and truth to thee;And every clime, from pole to pole,Shall His salvation see.
Let all the earth sublimely raiseTo Him the joyful sound,And let the strains of triumph rollThe spacious earth around.
Sing to the Lord with harp and lute,Oh! raise the grateful song;The praises of our God and KingLet every voice prolong.
Let all the earth, and all who dwellWithin its spacious ring,Conspire to raise their voices high,To bless our God and King.
He comes! He comes to judge the world,With righteousness and power;He comes, with glory clad, to reignOn earth for evermore.
E.
