4 [Awake, ye tempests, and his fame,
In sounds of dreadful praise declare,
And the sweet whisper of his name,
Fill ev'ry gentler breeze of air.

5 Let clouds, and winds, and waves agree
To join their praise with blazing fire;
Let the firm earth, and rolling sea,
In this eternal song conspire.

6 Ye flow'ry plains, proclaim his skill;
Vallies, lie low before his eyes;
And let his praise, from ev'ry hill,
Rise tuneful to the neighbouring sky.
7 Ye stubborn oaks, and stately pines,
Bend your high branches, and adore;
Praise him ye beasts, in diff'rent strains;
The Lamb must bleat, the lion roar.

8 Birds ye must make his praise your theme; Nature demands a song from you; While the dumb fish, that cut the stream, Leap up and mean his praises too.] -9 Mortals, can you refrain your tongue, e When nature all around you sings; u O for a shout-from old and young,― From humble swains, and lofty kings. g 10 Wide-as his vast dominion lies— Make the Creator's name be known: u Loud-as his thunder-shout his praise, g And sound it lofty-as his throne. e 11 JEHOVAH-'tis a glorious word,— O may it dwell on ev'ry tongue;

But saints who best have known the Lord,
Are bound to raise the noblest song.

o 12 Speak of the wonders of that love,
Which Gabriel plays on ev'ry chord!
u From all below and all above,
Loud hallelujahs to the Lord.

L'

S. M. St. Thomas's. [*]
Universal Praise.

ET ev'ry creature join,
To praise th' eternal God;

Ye heav'nly hosts, the song begin,
And sound his name abroad.

2 Thou sun, with golden beams,
And moon, with paler rays,
Ye starry lights, ye twinkling flames,
Shine to your Maker's praise.

3 He built those worlds above,
And fix'd their wondrous frame;
By his command they stand or move,
And ever speak his name.

4 Ye vapours, when you rise,
Or fall in show'rs, or snow,—

Ye thunders, murm'ring round the skies,
His pow'r and glory show.

5 Wind, hail, and flashing fire,
Agree to praise the Lord;

When ye in dreadful storms conspire,
To execute his word.

6 By all his works above
His honours be express'd;

But saints, who taste his saving love,
Should sing his praises best.

PAUSE 1.

[Let earth and ocean know, They owe their Maker praise: Praise him, ye wat'ry worlds below, And monsters of the seas.

8 From mountains near the sky, Let his high praise resound; From humble shrubs, and cedars high, And vales and fields around.

9 Ye lions of the wood,

And tamer beasts that graze,—

Ye live upon his daily food,
And he expects your praise.

10 Ye birds of lofty wing,
On high his praises bear;

Or sit on flow'ry boughs, and sing
Your Maker's glory there.

11 Ye creeping ants and worms,
His various wisdom show;

And flies, in all your shining swarms,
Praise him who prest you so.

12 By all the earth-born race,
His honours be exprest :-

But saints who know his heav'nly grace,
Should learn to praise him best.

PAUSE II.

13 Monarchs of wide command,
Praise ye th' eternal King :
Judges, adore that sov'reign hand,
Whence all your honours spring.
14 Let vig'rous youth engage,
To sound his praises high:
While growing babes, and with'ring age,
Their feebler voices try.

15 United zeal be shown

His wondrous fame to raise : God is the Lord: his name alone Deserves our endless praise.

16 Let nature join with art,

And all pronounce him blest:
But saints, who dwell so near his heart,
Should sing his praises best.]

PSALM 149. C. M. Arundel. [*]

The Saints judging the World.

ALL ye who love the Lord, rejoice,

And let your songs be new;

Amidst the church, with cheerful voice,
His later wonders shew.

2 The Jews, the people of his grace,
Shall their Redeemer sing;
And Gentile nations join the praise,
While Zion owns her King.

3 The Lord takes pleasure in the just,
Whom sinners treat with scorn:
The meek, who lie despis'd in dust,
Salvation shall adorn.

-4 Saints should be joyful in their King,

Ev'n on a dying bed;

And, like the souls in glory, sing:

For God shall raise the dead.

o 5 Then his high praise shall fill their tongues, Their hands shall wield the sword;

And vengeance shall attend their songs,
The vengeance of the Lord.

g 6 When Christ his judgment seat ascends,
And bids the world appear,
Thrones are prepared for all his friends,
Who humbly lov'd him here.

[Then shall they rule, with iron rod,
Nations that dar'd rebel:

And join the sentence of their God,
On tyrants doom'd to hell.

8 The royal sinners, bound in chains,
New triumphs shall afford:

Such honours for the saints remains :-
Praise ye and love the Lord.]

PSALM 150. C. M.

Doxology. [*]

Ver. 1, 2, 6.-A Song of Praise.

1 IN God's own house pronounce his praise;
His grace he there 'reveals:

To heav'n your joy and wonder raise;
For there his glory dwells.

2 Let all your sacred passions move,
While you rehearse his deeds:
But the great work of saving love
Your highest praise exceeds.

3 All that have motion, life and breath,
Proclaim your Maker blest:

Yet when my voice expires in death,
My soul shall praise him best.
