PRAISING GOD - PART 20

                                             PRAISING GOD

                                                  PART 20




Great  is the Lord and greatly too be praised
In the city of our God His holy mountain
Beautiful in elevation the joy of the whole earth
Is Mount Zion, in the far North
the city of the great King.
God in her palaces
Has made Himself known as a stronghold

For lo, the kings assembled themselves
They passed by together
They saw it, then they were amazed
They were terrified, they fled in alarm
Panic seized them there
Anguish as of a woman in childbirth
With the eastwind
Thou dost break the ships of Tarshish
As we have heard, so have we seen
In the city of the Lord of hosts
In the city of our God
God will establish her forever.

We have thought on 
Thy lovingkindness
O God
In the midst of Thy temple.
As is Thy name O God
So is Thy praise to the
ends of the earth
Thy right hand is full of  righteousness
Let mount Zion be glad 
Let the daughters of Judah rejoice
Because of Thy judgments
Walk about Zion and go around her
Count her towers
Consider her ramparts
Go through her palaces
That you might tell it to the next
generation
For such is God
Our God forever and ever
He will guide us until death.
