Psalm 111 (Version 2, Part 2)

C.M. (8.6.8.6) Psalm 111 Isaac Watts

Psalm Text

Great is the Lord; his works of might

Demand our noblest songs;

Let his assembled saints unite

Their harmony of tongues.

Great is the mercy of the Lord,

He gives his children food;

And ever mindful of his word,

He makes his promise good.

His Son, the great Redeemer, came

To seal his covenant sure:

Holy and reverend is his Name,

His ways are just and pure.

They that would grow divinely wise

Must with his fear begin;

Our fairest proof of knowledge lies

In hating every sin.
