Isaac Watts • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 33
Verse 1
Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, This work belongs to you; Sing of his name, his ways, his word, How holy, just, and true.
Verse 2
His mercy and his righteousness Let heaven and earth proclaim; His works of nature, and of grace, Reveal his wondrous name.
Verse 3
His word, with energy divine, Those heavenly arches spread, Bade starry hosts around them shine, And light the heavens pervade.
Verse 4
He taught the swelling waves to flow To their appointed deep-- Bade raging seas their limits know, And still their station keep.
Verse 5
Ye tenants of the spacious earth, With fear before him stand; He speak, and nature took its birth And rests on his command.
Verse 6
He scorns the angry nations' rage, And breaks their vain designs; His counsel stands through every age, And in full glory shines.
