Tune: Leoni
('The God of Abraham praise')
Psalm 68 v.28 & v.32-35
************
Your God has commanded
You strength, and you has led
Through wilderness, through many days
Now sing His praise
Strengthen O God, what you
Have wrought for us anew
That it firm stand, none take away
But lasts alway
Sing to God, you kingdoms
Of the earth, all princedoms
Sing to the Lord, He high above
The God of love
Upon the heavens He rides
There none other besides
The heavens He created and
All earthly land
He does sound out His voice
A mighty voice, rejoice
In Him, for He great evermore
Worship, adore
Ascribe you strength unto
God, and make praises new
His excellency it be high
Yet [He to] Israel nigh
His strength in the clouds be
He terrible, we see
Of awesome power, Almighty
Unbounded, free
He holy e'er remains
And cleanses from sin's stains
Strength, power, He gives His people
They thankful all

Not that I am at one with the message I still recognise your talent at these dear friend.
Thanks M. Erm 'terrible' in this sense means 'awe-ful', but not 'awful' in the usual sense we may use the word. I'm waffling now....!
A powerful tribute to faith dear Orchi.
Thanks Fay.
