This Is My Father's World

Author: Maltbie D. Babcock; Mary Babcock Crawford Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 315 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 97:1 Lyrics: 1 This is my Father's world, and to my listening ears all nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres. This is my Father's world; I rest me in the thought of rocks and trees, of skies and seas-- his hand the wonders wrought. 2 This is my Father's world: O let us not forget that though the wrong is great and strong, God is the ruler yet. He trusts us with his world, to keep it clean and fair-- all earth and trees, all skies and seas, all creatures everywhere. 3 This is my Father's world: he shines in all that's fair; in rustling grass I hear him pass-- he speaks to me everywhere. This is my Father's world: why should my heart be sad? The Lord is King, let heaven ring! God reigns; let earth be glad. Topics: Singing God's Story Creation Used With Tune: TERRA BEATA

Psalm 97: God reigneth, let the earth be glad

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 97 First Line: God reigneth, let the earth be glad Lyrics: 1God reigneth, let the earth be glad, and isles rejoice each one. 2Dark clouds him compass; and in right with judgment dwells his throne. 3Fire goes before him, and his foes it burns up round about: 4His lightnings lighten did the world; earth saw, and shook throughout. 5Hills at the presence of the Lord, like wax, did melt away; Ev’n at the presence of the Lord of all the earth, I say. 6The heav’ns declare his righteousness, all men his glory see. 7All who serve graven images, confounded let them be. Who do of idols boast themselves, let shame upon them fall: Ye that are called gods, see that ye do him worship all. 8Sion did hear, and joyful was, glad Judah’s daughters were; They much rejoic’d, O Lord, because thy judgments did appear. 9For thou, O Lord, art high above all things on earth that are; Above all other gods thou art exalted very far. 10Hate ill, all ye that love the Lord: his saints’ souls keepeth he; And from the hands of wicked men he sets them safe and free. 11For all those that be righteous sown is a joyful light, And gladness sown is for all those that are in heart upright. 12Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; express your thankfulness, When ye into your memory do call his holiness.

Jehovah reigns, O let the earth

Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 97 Lyrics: 1 JEHOVAH reigns! O let the earth exult with joyful voice: And all the multitude of isles, exceedingly rejoyce. 2 Thick clouds and darkness round Him spread; and yet the world must own, That righteousness and judgment sit for ever on his throne. 3 Fire goes before Him; and it burns His foes up ev'ry where: 4 His light'nings lighten thro' the world; Earth sees and shakes for fear. 5 Before JEHOVAH's face, behold the mountains melting down; Like wax before the Lord, who all the earth doth rule and own. 6 The heav'ns on high his righteousness to all abroad declare; And to all people through the earth his glory doth appear. 7 All who serve graven images, shall now confounded be; And all who of their idols boast: all GODS HIM worship ye! S Mount Zion hears and sees with joy; all Judah's daughters are Exceeding glad; because O LORD, thy judgments now appear. 9 For over all the earth abroad, JEHOVAH, Thou art high; Supream above all other GODS exalted wondrously. 10 All ye who truly love the LORD, all evil hate: for He, The souls of all his saints will keep, and from the wicked free. 11 For such as righteous are, is sown a seed of shining light, And of immortal joy for those who are in heart upright. 12 Rejoyce ye righteous in the LORD, your joy in Him express; And give Him thanks in mem'ry of his glorious holiness.
