A New Version of the Psalms
PSALM CXIII.
Tate and Brady
Ye saints and servants of the Lord,
The triumphs of his Name record;
2 His sacred Name for ever bless.
3 Where'er the circling sun displays
His rising beams or setting rays,
Due praise to his great Name address.
4 God through the world extends his sway,
The regions of eternal day
But shadows of his glory are.
5 With him, whose majesty excels,
Who made the heav'n in which he dwells,
Let no created pow'r compare.
6 Though 'tis beneath his state to view
In highest heav'n what angels do,
Yet he to earth vouchsafes his care:
He takes the needy from his cell,
Advancing him in courts to dwell,
Companion to the greatest there.
7 When childless families despair,
He sends the blessing of an heir,
To rescue their expiring name;
Makes her that barren was to bear,
And joyfully her fruit to rear:
O then extol his matchless fame!
