Psalm CXLV. 1st. Part. Com. Met. The divine perfections and providence

Thee will I bless, my God and king, Thy endless praise proclaim; This tribute daily will I bring, And ever bless thy name.

Thou, Lord, art infinitely great, And highly to be prais'd; Thy majesty, with boundless height Above our knowledge rais'd,

Renown'd for mighty acts, thy same, To future time extends; From age to age, thy glorious name, Successively descends.

The fathers to the listening youth. Shall teach thy wond'rous ways; Ages to come proclaim thy truth, And nations sound thy praise.

Thy glorious deeds of ancient date, Shall thro' the world be known; Thine arm of power, thy heav'nly state With public splendor shown.

The world is govern'd by thy hands, Thy saints are rul'd by love; And thine eternal kingdom stands, Tho' rocks and hills remove.
