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.
