Tune: Darwall
('Ye holy angels bright')
Psalm 148
********
Praise you the Lord, Him praise
To Him your anthems raise
To Him in heavens height
All open to His sight
Praise Him, all you angels, and all
His hosts, worship, before Him fall
Praise Him, sun, moon, each star
Which dwell from the earth far
Praise Him all heavens, clouds
Which do the earth enshroud
Let them praise His name, for He spake
His word, them created, did make
He has them established
Each as He willed and wished
Set them for ever, placed
Them sure, and each has graced
Praise the Lord all on earth, in seas
Fire, hail, snow, vapours, winds, and trees
Mountains, hills, animals
Cattle on land, in stalls
Creeping things, birds, too kings
Each Him their praises brings
And princes, rulers, young and old
Praise Him, let His glory be told
For His name it lone
Is excellent, it known
His glory great, strength He
Gives to His people, we
His saints, praise our strength it be here
We a people to the Lord near

Another great hymn of praise. I always wondered Orchi why so much time was spent in church praising and so little doing. But then I was just an antsy kid. Good write Orchi

Interesting. A little tune history I did not know. Now I know why it is called Darwall's 148th. LOL! Anywho, well done, Orchi! I hope you have a great weekend, my friend! 🌹👏
Thank you T. Maybe he wrote 150 hymns - as 150 Psalms?! lol.
LOL! Maybe 🤔
BRAVO
Thank you T.
You're welcome
Awesome hymn
Thank you K. Why you small name there? lol.
No problem, its from a text generator lol
Too many sixes for a fellow G.P.D. I guess Praising our Lord will fix that!
Thank you JM. It could have been 6.6.6.6. 4.4.4.4. instead. Am I playing bingo?! lol.
Good one Orchi.
Thank you Gold.
