('City of God, how broad and far')
Psalm 95 v.1-7
*********
O come, let us sing to the Lord
And praise Him for His word
Let us make joyful noise unto
Our salvation's Rock true
Let us come before His presence
With thanksgiving now hence
And make joyful noise to Him, sing
And psalms unto Him bring
For the Lord is a great God, He
Great King above all be
Above all gods*, in His hands are
The earth's deeps near and far
The strength of the hills is His too
He made the sea, it true
To be His, and He the dry land
Did form by His own hands
O come, let us worship, bow down
To Him of high renown
Let us kneel before Him, for He
Our Maker, Creator be
For He is our God, we His sheep
His people, He does keep
In His pasture, under His care
In His blessings we share
-----
* 'gods' in some cases in the Psalms can mean
human rulers, judges, magistrates, those in authority, etc.

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. There are more verses to this Psalm, but it changes the theme and does not really fit to such a lively or joyful tune as the one I have chosen here.
