Hear My Words, Ye People Lyrics

Hear my words, ye people
Give ear unto me all ye that have knowledge
Let us choose to us judgement
Let us know among ourselves what is good

Behold, God is mighty
And despiseth not any
He is mighty in strength and in wisdom
Behold He is great, and we know Him not
Neither can the number of his years be searched out

The Lord's seat is in heav'n…

Clouds and darkness are round about Him
Righteousness and judgment are the habitation of His seat
He decketh himself with light as with a garment
And spreadeth out the heav'ns like a curtain

He layeth the beams of His chambers in the waters
And maketh the clouds His chariots
And walketh upon the wings of the wind

He bowed the heav'ns and came down
And it was dark under His feet
He rode on the cherubim and did fly
And came flying upon the wings of the wind

The Lord's seat is in heav'n
His kingdom ruleth over all

Behold the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him
And upon them that put their trust in His mercy
To deliver their soul from death
And to feed them in a time of dearth

Our soul hath patiently tarried for the Lord
For He is our help, our help and our shield
He delivered the poor in his affliction
The fatherless and him that hath none to help him
He shall bind up the brokenhearted
And proclaim liberty to the captives
And comfort to those that mourn

He shall give them beauty for ashes:
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness
For as the earth bringeth forth a bud
And as the garden causeth things that are sown to spring forth
So the Lord God will cause righteousness and peace to spring forth before all nations

The Lord is full of compassion, is full of compassion and mercy
He hath not dealt with us after our sins
Nor rewarded us according to our wickedness;
For look how high the heav'n is in comparison of the earth
So great is his mercy also toward them that fear Him
Look how wide also the East is from the West
So far hath He set our sins from us

O praise ye the Lord
Praise Him in the height
Rejoice in His word
Ye angels of light
Ye heavens adore him
By whom you were made
And worship before Him
In brightness arrayed

O praise ye the Lord
Praise Him upon earth
In tuneful accord
Ye sons of new birth
Praise Him who hath brought you
His grace from above
Praise Him who hath taught you
To sing of his Love

O praise ye the Lord!
Thanksgiving and song
To Him be outpoured
All ages along;
For love is creation
From heaven restored;
For grace of salvation
O praise ye the Lord! Amen
