Lord of the worlds above

Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 501 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1. Lord of the worlds above, How pleasant and how fair The dwellings of thy love, Thine earthly temples are; To thine abode my heart aspires, With warm desires, to see my God. 2. The sparrow for her young, With pleasure seeks her nest; And wandering swallows long To find their wonted rest; My spirit faints with equal zeal, To rise and dwell among thy saints. 3. O happy souls, that pray Where God appoints to hear! O happy men, that pay Their constant service there! They praise thee still; and happy they, That love the way to Zion's hill.

Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Praise ye, praise ye the Lord in yonder heav'nly height; ye angels, all his hosts, in joyful praise unite. O sun and moon, declare his might; show forth his praise, ye stars of light. 2 Praise him, ye highest heav'ns, praise him, ye clouds that roll, created by his power and under his control, ye heav'ns that stand eternally, established by his firm decree. 3 Ye creatures in the sea and creatures on the earth, Yyur mighty Maker praise, and tell his matchless worth. Praise him, ye stormy winds that blow, ye fire and hail, ye rains and snow. 4 Ye hills and mountains, praise: each tree and beast and bird; ye kings and realms of earth, now let your praise be heard; by high and low, by young and old, be all his praise and glory told. 5 By all let God be praised for he alone is great; above the earth and heaven he reigns in glorious state. Praise him, ye saints who know his grace, and ever dwell before his face. Scripture: Psalm 148 Used With Tune: AMHERST Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912
