Triumphant Lord, Thy goodness reigns
Philip Doddridge • English
Primary Scripture: Ezra 3:11
Verse 1
Triumphant Lord, thy goodness reigns Through all the wide celestial plains; And its full streams redundant flow Down to th' abodes of men below.
Verse 2
Through nature's works its glories shine; The cares of providence are thine: And grace erects our ruined frame, A fairer temple to thy name.
Verse 3
O give to every human heart To taste, and feel, how GOOD thou art; With grateful love, and reverend fear, To know how blest thy children are.
Verse 4
Let nature burst into a song; Ye echoing hills, the notes prolong: Earth, seas, and stars, your anthems raise, All vocal with your Maker's praise.
Verse 5
Ye saints with joy the theme pursue, Its sweetest notes belong to you; Elected by your heavenly king, For ever round his throne to sing.
