Tune: Old Hundredth
('All hail, adoréd Trinity'
= 'All people that on earth do dwell')
Psalm 66 v.1-7
********
Make joyful noise to God, all lands
You all created by His hands
Sing forth the honour of his name
Make glorious His praise and fame
Say unto God, How awesome are
You in your works! To farthest star
Through the greatness of your power
Enemies shall submit each hour
Submit themselves to you, for they
Shall not obtain victory's day
All the earth shall come, worship you
Sing to you, to your name e'er true
Come, see the works of the Lord, He
Terrible, awesome in works be
In His doings unto mankind
he Red Sea in old days did bind
Turned Red Sea into dry land, they
His people went through river's way
On foot, and rejoiced in Him there
Protected them with His strong care
he rules by His people for e'er
His eyes behold how nations fare
Let not rebellious exalt
Themselves, lest He find in them fault

Truly awsome Orchi, in every sense of the word!
Thanks Bella. An olde-style hymn in the clip - as old as me - and you?! 🙂
That would be one hell of a combined age, let me tell you.
