I sing the wisdom that ordained The sun to rule the day; The moon shines full at his command, And all the stars obey. 2 I sing the goodness of the Lord That filled the earth with food; He formed the creatures with his word, And then pronounced them good. Lord, how thy wonders are displayed Where'er I turn my eye; If I survey the ground I tread, Or gaze upon the sky! 3 There's not a plant or flow'r below, But makes thy glories known; And clouds arise, and tempests blow By order from thy throne; While all that borrows life from thee Is ever in thy care, And ev'rywhere that I can be, Thou, God, are present there.

God helps the stranger in distress, the widowed and the parentless, and grants the prisoner sweet release. 4 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath; and when my voice is lost in death, praise shall employ my nobler powers. My days of praise shall ne'er be past while life and thought and being last, or immortality endures.

In joyous hymns and in sublimest lays

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 136 Lyrics: 1 In joyous hymns and in sublimest lays, The God of gods, the great Jehovah praise, The God, o'er mighty kings dread Lord alone, Who such stupendous miracles has done: For great his mercy; equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 5 'Twas he by his creating hand brought forth, From nought, yon worlds above, this spacious earth; This earth did for his fav'rite, man, provide, And bad the waters to their depths subside; Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 7 'Twas he that fix'd the radiant lights on high, With their bright blaze t' illume the azure sky; That gave the sun to shed his beams by day, The moon to bless the night with milder ray; Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 10 When Israel in Egyptian bondage sigh'd, By him the first-born of their tyrants died; He led his people from the faithless land, By his strong arm and his Almighty hand: Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 13 He bad the sea her turbid waves divide; Her waves a rampier form'd on either side; Safely we pass, and gain the welcome coast, While Pharaoh and his threat'ning bands are lost; Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 16 Thro' the dry desart he his people led, Slew mighty kings, and all their hosts dismay'd; Great Sihon whom the Amorites obey'd, And valiant Og, that Bashan's warriors sway'd; Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 21 On Ifrael he their fruitful lands bestow'd, That they might ever serve their gracious God; And still, when in distress to him they cry, Swift he redeems them from the enemy; Great is his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more. 25 On him depend the nations all for bread. All by the bounty of his love are fed; O'er heav'ns above, o'er earth beneath, he reigns; Praise all their maker in exalted strains; For great his mercy, equal with his pow'r; Lasts his beneficence, till time's no more.
