Tune: Darwalls 148th
('Ye holy angles bright')
Psalm 33 v.1-8
*********
Rejoice in the LORD, you
Righteous, and praise Him true
For praise is beautiful
For the upright, here call
Upon His name, praises now sound
With voices and instruments found
Sing to Him a new song
Play skilfully along
With a loud noise, and shout
Of joy, let it ring out
For word of LORD is right and sure
All His works done in truth e'ermore
He too loves righteousness
And judgement, we onfess
The earth here it be full
Of the LORD's goodness all
By the LORD's word heavens were made
And all their host by Him arrayed
The waters He gathers
Seas, and on them confers
Boundaries, they pass not
Limits He does allot
Store-houses there be of the deeps
High and low He creation keeps
Let all the earth now fear
The LORD, for He is near
Let all inhabitants
Of the world Him now sense
And stand in awe, for He e'er great
Rules over all, and not mere fate

Thanks B&A. Well, yes, nto so many harps or lutes (whatever they are!) about today, so whip out the guitars and banjos!
A church I know is never gonna change - they don't want to. Just happens to be an 'oldies' church. It's only ever the organ or piano. Well, they can't doze off if they have things like guitars. lol. Not to dislike 'oldies' but are they - 'a church that will not die', as they say, or 'a church that is dying off'?
Very Well Written there orchidee. Don
Love the Horns in the beginning.
Like I ran outside to see if Jesus had come in the clouds, Yet! Just Waiting. LOL
Thanks Don.
Praise is indeed beautiful and worthy of our daily attention. A needed read Orchi and thank you.
Thanks Fay.
