Prosperous Provision

Tune: Austrian Hymn

('Praise the Lord, ye heavens adore Him')

Psalm 65 v.5-9

********

By awesome things in righteousness

You will answer us, and bless

You the God of our salvation

And too unto each nation

You who are the sure confidence

Of all ends of the earth hence

And of those far off on the sea

In all places man may be

 

By His strength He has established

Firms the mountains as He wished

They are set, girded with power

Hill and vale and tree and flower

He does quiet the noise of the seas

Angry waves, each from Him flees

And the people's tumult He calms

Brings to them His healing balms

 

They that dwell in the uttermost

Parts, in Him they make their boast

His fear, awe, extends to the ends

Of the earth, He signs them sends

He does make each day to rejoice

And too nights, made by His choice

He does visit the earth, gives rain

That lands be refreshed again

 

He waters earth, and doe enrich

It with His river, and whic

Is full of water to supply

Needs of those afar and nigh

And causes corn, food, to there grow

Of His production we know

Faithful to provide all people

Help us Lord to share with all
