Lyics

COME, sound his praise abroad,

And hymns of glory sing;

Jehovah is the sovereign God,

The universal King.



He formed the deeps unknown;

He gave the seas their bound;

The watery worlds are all his own,

And all the solid ground.



Come, worship at his throne;

Come, bow before the Lord;

We are his work, and not our own;

He formed us by his word.



To-day attend his voice,

Nor dare provoke his rod;

Come, like the people of his choice,

And own your gracious God.
