Praise ye the Lord, for it
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 147 Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord, for it
Is good praises to sing
To our God, for its sweet:
Praise is a comely thing.
2 Tie Lord doth rear
Jerusalem: And gathers them
That outcafss were,
3 The broke in heart he heals,
And up their wounds doth bind.
4 The stars by number tells,
He calls them all by kind:
5 Our Lord great is
And of great might: Yea infinite
His knowledge is.
6 The Lord doth raise the low,
To ground the vile doth fling.
7 Sing thanks the Lord unto,
On harp our God's praise sing.
8 Who clouds the skies;
Rains th' earth upon, and mountains on
Makes grass to rise.
9 Beasts he and ravens young,
When as they cry feeds them:
10 Joys not in horses strong,
Nor in the legs of men.
11 The Lord doth place
His pleasure where, Men do him fear,
And hope on's grace,
12 The Lord Jerusalem praise,
Sion thy God confess.
13 For thy gates bars he stays;
In thee thy sons doth bless.
14 Peace maketh he
In borders thine: With wheat so fine
He filleth thee.
15 On earth sends his decree,
His word doth swiftly pass.
16 Gives snow like wool; and he
Hoar-frost spreads ashes as.
17 His ice doth send
Like morsels too; 'Fore his cold who
Can steady stand?
18 His word sends, and them thaws;
Makes wind blow, water flows.
19 Jacob his word, his laws
And Judgments Isra'l shows.
20 He hath so done
No Nation to: And judgments so
They have not known
Praise ye the Lord, for it

Now Praise the Lord
Oh! praise the LORD with Hymns of Joy
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 147 Lyrics: 1 Oh! praise the LORD with Hymns of Joy,
And celebrate his glorious Fame;
For pleasant, good, and comely 'tis
To sing loud Praises to his Name.
His holy City GOD will build,
Though levell'd even with the Ground,
Bring back his People, though dispers'd
Through all the Heathen Nations round.
2 He kindly heals the broken Hearts,
And all their bleeding Wounds does close;
He tells the Number of the Stars,
Their sev'ral Names exactly knows;
Great is the LORD, and great his Pow'r,
His heav'nly Wisdom has no Bound;
The Meek he raises, and throws down
The haughty Wicked to the Ground.
3 To GOD, the LORD, a Hymn of Praise,
With grateful Voices loudly sing;
To Songs of Triumph tune the Harp,
And touch with Skill each warbling String;
He covers Heav'n with floating Clouds,
And thence refreshing Rain bestows;
Through him on lofty Mountain-Tops,
The verdant Grass in Plenty grows.
4 He savage Beasts, that loosely range,
With timely wholesome Food supplies;
He feeds the Ravens tender Brood,
And satisfies their hungry Cries.
He values not the warlike Steed,
But does his Strength disdain;
The nimble Foot that swiftly runs,
No Prize from him can gain.
5 But he to him that fears his Name,
Mercy and tender Love extends;
To him that on his boundless Grace
With ever steadfast Hope depends.
Let Sion and Jerusalem
To GOD their constant Praise address,
Who fenc'd their Gates with massy Brass,
And does their num'rous Children bless.
6 Through all their Borders he gives Peace,
With finest Flour of Wheat they're fed;
He speaks the Word, and what he wills,
Accomplish'd is as soon as said.
Large Flakes of Snow, like fleecy Wool,
Gently descends at this Command;
And hoary Frost, like Ashes spread,
Is plenteous scatter'd o'er the Land.
7 When join'd to these, he does his Hail
These little icy Morsels send;
Who can against his piercing Cold,
Themselves sufficiently defend?
He sends his Word, which melts the Ice,
He makes the warmer Wind to blow,
And soon the Streams, congeal'd before,
Now thaw'd, in plenteous Currents flow.
8 By him his Statutes and Decrees
To Jacob's Sons were plainly shown,
And still to Israel's chosen Seed,
He makes righteous Precepts known,
No other Nations this can boast,
Nor did he ever yet afford
To Heathen Lands his Oracles,
And Knowledge of his sacred Word. Topics: Songs of Praise to God the Creation and Providence Used With Tune: [Oh! praise the Lord with Hymns of Joy]

Praise ye the Lord, for good is he
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 147 Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord, for good it is
Praise to our God to sing:
Because a pleasant thing is this,

Her buildings up repair;

That Israel's outcasts are.

All them by names doth call.

The wicked casts to ground.

Sing out with thanksgiving:
Upon the harp our God unto
See that you praises sing.
8 Who overspreads with clouds the skie,
Who for the earth below
Prepareth rain: on mountains high
Who causeth grass to grow.
9 To beasts their food, to ravens young
Who giveth when they cry.

Nor in man's legs doth lie.

Whose hope one's mercy stays.

Thy God O Sion praise.
13 For thy gates bars he hath made strong,
Thy children in thee bless'd.
14 He maketh peace thy coasts-along,
Thee fills with wheat o' th' best
15 He forth on earth sends his decree,
His word is swiftly past.
1 6 He gives snow like wool, and he
Doth frost as ashes cast.
17 Like morsels forth he sends his ice,
Who can his cold sustain?
18 He sendeth forth his word likewise:
And melteth them again.
19 His wind he causeth forth to blow,
And then the waters flow.
He Jacob did his word, his law
And judgments Israel show.

In like sort hath not he:
His judgments so they have not known,

With him, such Favour, e'er have found;
To them, he never did afford,
His Judgments. Therefore praise the Lord.
