3 Praise him, ye who know his love; Praise him from the depths beneath; Praise him in the heights above; Praise your Maker all that breathe.
4 For his truth and mercy stand, Past, and present, and to be, Like the years of his right hand-- Like his own eternity.
James Montgomery, 1822.

_Praise of Divine Love._
O wors.h.i.+p the King, all-glorious above, And gratefully sing his wonderful love; Our s.h.i.+eld and Defender, the Ancient of days, Pavilioned in splendor and girdled with praise.
2 Thy bountiful care, what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it s.h.i.+nes in the light; It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
3 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail; Thy mercies, how tender! how firm to the end, Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
4 Our Father and G.o.d, how faithful thy love!
While angels delight to hymn thee above, The humbler creation, though feeble their lays.
With true adoration shall lisp to thy praise.
Sir Robert Grant, 1839.
29 Lyons. 10s & 11s.
_Salvation to G.o.d._
Ye servants of G.o.d, your Master proclaim, And publish abroad his wonderful name.
The name, all-victorious, of Jesus extol; His kingdom is glorious, and rules over all.
2 G.o.d ruleth on high, almighty to save; And still he is nigh, his presence we have; The great congregation his triumph shall sing, Ascribing salvation to Jesus our King.
3 "Salvation to G.o.d, who sits on the throne,"
Let all cry aloud, and honor the Son; Our Savior's high praises the angels proclaim,-- Fall down on their faces, and wors.h.i.+p the Lamb.
C. Wesley, 1744.
30 Gerar. S.M.
_The Glories of the Sanctuary._ (128)
How charming is the place Where my Redeemer G.o.d Unveils the glories of his face, And sheds his love abroad!
2 Here, on the mercy seat, With radiant glory crowned, Our joyful eyes behold him sit, And smile on all around.
3 To him their prayers and cries, Each contrite soul presents; And while he hears their humble sighs He grants them all their wants.
4 Give me, O Lord, a place Within thy blest abode; Among the children of thy grace, The servants of my G.o.d.
S. Stennett.
