Now Blessed Be the Lord Our God
from Psalm 72
Scottish Psalter, 1650
MCKEE (C.M.)
Spiritual
Now bless-ed be the Lord our God,
The God of Is-ra-el,
For He a-lone does won-drous works
In glo-ry that ex-cel.
And bless-ed be His glo-rious name
To all e-ter-ni-ty;
The whole earth let His glo-ry fill.
A-men, so let it be.
His wide do-min-ion shall ex-tend
From sea to ut-most sea,
And un-to earth's re-mot-est bounds
His peace-ful rule shall be.
Yea, all the kings shall bow to Him,
His rule all na-tions hail;
He will re-gard the poor man's cry
When oth-er help-ers fail.
