Psalm 113

Monkland

Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
You his servants praise accord.
Glory to the Lord’s great name;
Now and always praise proclaim.

God’s great name is to be blessed,
From sun’s rising to the west.
O’er all nations God is high;
High his glory o’er the sky.

With the Lord our God who’ll vie?
Sat upon his throne on high,
He who stoops to look and know,
Sees the heavens and earth below.

He the poor man makes arise
From the ash heap where he lies,
That he may exalted stand
With the princes in the land.

He the childless woman takes
And a joyful mother makes;
For such blessings praise accord,
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
