Tune: Lux Benigna

('Lead, kindly light')

Psalm 113

********

Praise you the LORD, you His servants Him praise

And His name raise

Blessed be the name of the LORD from the time

And through life's rhyme

For evermore, for from rising of sun

To its going down, prise Him, holy One

 

So praise the LORD from sunrise to sunset

He faithful yet

The LORD is high above all nations, He

Glorious be

His glory is above the heavens, who

Is like unto the LORD our God great, true

 

He dwells on high, and Himself does humble

To see of all

Things that are in heaven, and on the earth

Whate'er their worth

he raises up out of the dust the poor

And lifts needy out of the ash heap sure

 

That He may set poor, needy with those, see

Who honoured be

Even with the princes of His people

They shall not fall

He makes the barren woman a home, then

She be a joyful mother of children
