Acadia 2
Lyrics: Isaac Watts
Tune: Megan Henderson, 1991
Meter: C.M. (8.6.8.6)
With songs and honors sounding loud
Address the Lord on high;
Over the heavens He spreads His clouds
And waters veil the sky.
He sends his show'rs of blessings down
To cheer the plains below;
He makes the grass the mountains crown
And corn in valleys grow.
He sends his word and melts the snow,
The fields no longer mourn,
He calls the warmer gales to blow
And bids the spring return.
The changing wind, the flying cloud,
Obey his mighty word
With songs and honors sounding loud,
Praise ye the sov'reign Lord.
