Psalm 150
From Davids Psalms in Metre (1655)
PRaise ye the Lord, praise God within
his holy place with fear,
And in the Firmament praise him
whence his pow'r doth appear.
And praise him for his mighty acts,
and them declare and tell,
After his greatnesse praise the Lord,
wherein he doth excell.
With Trumpets and with Cornets sound,
advance his praise on high,
Praise him with the melodious harp,
and with the Psaltery.
Praise him with timbrel, and with flute,
organs and Virginals.
Praise with joyfulness of heart
upon the loud Cymbals.
Praise him on Cymbals sounding loud.
Let every thing accord,
That breath enjoyes, to praise the Lord.
Praise ye the living Lord.
