Tune: Deus Tuorum Militum
(\'Awake, awake, fling off the night\')
Parts of Psalms 113 to 118 - Psalms sung at Jewish festival of Passover
***********
113 v.3
From the rising of the sun to
Its going down each day, \'tis true
That the Lord\'s name is to be praised
And unto Him fresh anthems raised
114 v.8
Tremble you, earth, at God\'s presence
Presence of God of Israel sense
Who turned rock into water pool
The flint to fount of waters full
115 v.1
Not to us, O Lord, but to you
To your name be the glory true
Praising you for your mercy sure
And for your truth\'s sake evermore
115 v.16
The heavens, e\'en the highest realms
Are the Lord\'s, He is at the helms
But the earth He has to us given
Let us partake, care-take it then
116 v.7
Return to your rest, O my soul
The Lord has helped you, will whole
He has with you dealt bountifully
His good plans and ways you do see
118 v.24
This is the day the Lord has made
Let us Him trust, be unafraid
We will rejoice in it, be glad
Remain not always mournful, sad
117 v.1-2
Praise Him all nations, all people
Look unto Him and on Him call
His merciful kindness is great
To us, truth ever is His state
