Creation Crescendo

Tune: Llanfair

('Hail the day that sees Him rise')

Psalm 104 v.27-35

********

All creation waits on you - Alleluia!

Lord, you do provide anew - Alleluia!

All look to you that you may - Alleluia!

Give them their food for each day - Alleluia!

 

What you give them they gather - Alleluia!

Of your gifts, loving Father - Alleluia!

You do open sure your hand - Alleluia!

They filled with good, every land - Alleluia!

 

But if you do hide your face - Alleluia!

They are troubled, withdrawn grace - Alleluia!

When you take away their breath - Alleluia!

They return to dust in death - Alleluia!

 

You do send forth your Spirit - Alleluia

They are created, each whit - Alleluia!

Face of the earth you renew - Alleluia!

All is dependent on you - Alleluia!

 

The glory of the Lord shall - Alleluia!

Endure for ever, tongues tell - Alleluia!

The Lord shall prosper, rejoice - Alleluia

In His works, made by His choice - Alleluia!

 

He looks on the earth, it then - Alleluia!

Trembles, He views it again - Alleluia!

He touches the hills, they smoke - Alleluia!

Though He made the mall bespoke - Alleluia

 

I will sing to Him as long - Alleluia!

As I live, will be my song - Alleluia!

Will praise while I have being - Alleluia!

Let thanksgiving from earth ring - Alleluia!

 

My meditation shall be - Alleluia!

Of Him sweet and wholesome, see - Alleluia!

In Him I will be glad for - Alleluia!

He great Creator e'ermore - Alleluia!

 

Let evil be all consumed - Alleluia!

What is proud, boastful, presumed - Alleluia!

Wicked be no more, but bless - Alleluia!

The Lord always, Him confess - Alleluia!

            HI UNCLE STEVE ~ Its 9 horas en la Manana (Wednesday) here so your Hymn & Ode has given me a real Spiitual Uplift for the DAY AHEAD ! First Clinic @ 11 am. It will soon be EASTER (Brian is comlng ALLELUIAH !) In view of massacares of MUSLIMS in Christchurch & Brexit there is much to pray about but always room for ALLELUIAS for Gods provision 24/7. Having been raised a Catholic (now an Evangelical !) I love EASTER because in Spain & the UK & NZ it is recognized as a much more Solomn & Spiritual Celebration than Christmas and it hasnt been hijacked completely by Commercialism ! The Easter Eggs & Chicks & Bunnies etc all speak of New Life & Ressurection !
            Blessings & Love in the Spirit
            Tu Amiga : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
