L. M.
All thy works praise thee.
Psalm 145:10.
Nature, with all her powers shall sing
God the Creator, and the King;
Nor air, nor earth, nor skies, nor seas
Deny the tribute of their praise.
2 Begin to make his glories known,
Ye seraphs, who sit near his throne;
Tune high your harps, and spread the sound
To the creation’s utmost bound.
3 Thus let our flaming zeal employ
Our loftiest thoughts, and loudest songs;
Nations, pronounce with warmest joy
Hosanna, from ten thousand tongues.
4 Yet, mighty God, our feeble frame
Attempts in vain to reach thy name;
The strongest notes that angels raise
Faint in the worship and the praise.
Watts.
