Servants of God, in Joyful Lays

lyricist: James Montgomery, 1789
Composer: Psalmodia Evangelica, 1789

Servants of God

in joy­ful lays

Sing ye the Lord Je­ho­vah’s praise;

His glo­ri­ous name let all adore

From age to age

for­ev­er­more.

Blest be that name

su­preme­ly blest

From the sun’s ris­ing to its rest;

Above the heav’ns His pow’r is known

Through all the earth His good­ness shown.

Who is like God? So great

so high

He bows Him­self to view the sky;

And yet

with con­des­cend­ing grace

Looks down up­on the human race.

He hears the un­com­plain­ing moan

Of those who sit and weep alone;

He lifts the mourn­er from the dust;

And saves the poor in Him that trust.

Servants of God

in joy­ful lays

Sing to the Lord Je­ho­vah’s praise;

His sav­ing name let all ad­ore

From age to age

for­ev­er­more.
