Song of Praise 186
Lyrics: Isaac Watts
Tune: Elisha West
Meter: C.M.D. (8,6,8,6,8,6,8,6)
With songs and honors sounding loud
Address the Lord on high;
Over the heav'ns 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.
