Psalm 99 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 115 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 99 First Line: Exalt the Lord our God Lyrics: Exalt the Lord our God, And worship at his feet; His nature is all holiness, And mercy is his seat. When Isr'el was his church, When Aaron was his priest, When Moses cried, when Samuel prayed, He gave his people rest. Oft he forgave their sins, Nor would destroy their race; And oft he made his vengeance known, When they abused his grace. Exalt the Lord our God, Whose grace is still the same; Still he's a God of holiness, And jealous for his name.

Jehovah reigns, let therefore all

Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 99 Lyrics: 1 Jehovah reigns, let therefore all the guilty Nations quake; On Cherubs Wings he sits enthron'd: let Earth's Foundations shake. 2 On Sion's Hill he keeps his Court, his Palace makes her Tow'rs; Yet thence his Sov'reignty extends supreme o'er earthly Pow'rs. 3 Let therefore all with Praise address his great and dreadful Name, And with his unresisted Might his Holiness proclaim. 4 For Truth and Justice, in his Reign, of Strength and Pow'r take place: His Judgments are with Righteousness dispens'd to Jacob's Race. 5 Therefore exalt the Lord our God, before his Footstool fall: And with his unresisted Might, his Holiness extol. 6 Moses and Aaron thus of old, amongst his Priests ador'd; Amongst his Prophets Samuel thus his sacred Name implor'd: Distress'd, upon the Lord they call'd, who ne'er their Suit deny'd; But, as with Rev'rence they implor'd, he graciously reply'd. 7 For, with their Camp, to guide their March the cloudy Pillar mov'd: They kept his Laws, and to his Will obedient Servants prov'd. 8 He answer'd them, forgiving oft his People for their Sake; And those who rashly them oppos'd did sad Examples make. 9 With Worship at his sacred Courts exalt our God and Lord; For he, who only holy is, alone should be ador'd.
