Tune: Sagina
('And can it be')
Psalm 135 part
*********
Praise the Lord here, His servants all
Praise the Lord, and upon Him call
For the Lord, He is good, look, see
To praise His name it pleasant be
His people Israel He chose sure
For Himself, His treasure e'ermore
His people Israel He chose sure
For Himself, His treasure e'ermore
And I know he the Lord is great
Will not abandon us to fate
The Lord above all gods always
We lift our hearts to Him and praise
Whatsoever He pleased to do
He did in heaven and earth too
Whatsoever He pleased to do
He did in heaven and earth too
Man's hand could not change or alter
Nor can any His plans falter
Also in the seas, deep places
He does as He wishes, graces
E'er prevail, He keeps, sustains all
Making rains too, on earth to fall
E'er prevail, He keeps, sustains all
Making rains too, on earth to fall
Winds from his storehouses rough, calm
Yet He protects, keeps us from harm
Wind and he rain, calm and sunshine
All come under His plans, align
He whose name does endure for e'er
Remembrance of the Lord fails ne'er
He whose name does endure for e'er
Remembrance of the Lord fails ne'er

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.8.8.8.8.8. The repetition of the last two lines of each verse is a bit tricky, and not always very smooth in this poem.
