Fruitful Flourishing

orchidee



Tune: Dominus Regit Me

('The King of love my Shepherd is')

Psalm 107 v.31-38

********

O that people would the LORD praise

And to Him sweet anthems raise

Praise Him for His goodness, kindness

His wondrous works they do us bless

 

Let all the congregation sing

And to Him true worship bring

He turns rivers to wilderness

Watered land to barrenness

 

Fruitful land He does make to cease

For wicked there be no peace

But wilderness turns to waters

To refresh His sons, daughters

 

Dry ground He turns to water springs

Quenching of thirst He then brings

And there He makes hungry to dwell

By Him fed, they do fare well

 

It be a place habitable

And a land profitable

There they shall sow fields, plant vineyards

The LORD then He keeps and guards

 

So they do yield fruits, and increase

His blessings He does release

They multiply greatly, for He

Provides for them, does oversee
