Psalm 98

Tate and Brady

2 The Lord has through th' astonish'd world
Display'd His saving might,
And made His righteous acts appear
In all the heathen's sight.

3 Of Israel's house His love and truth
Have ever mindful been;
Wide earth's remotest parts the power
of Israel's God have seen.

4 Let therefore earth's inhabitants
Their cheerful voices raise,
And all with universal joy
Resound their Maker's praise.

5 Clap, clap your hands, ye rolling floods,
And toss your waves on high;
And all ye hills, with all your woods,
Shout to the echoing sky.

6 Jehovah comes, He takes His state,
He comes to judge mankind:
On His high throne shall justice wait,
And truth His sentence bind.

Last two Richard Mant, 1824.
