Ye Seas and Floods
From The Poets and the Poetry of the Century, ed. Alfred H. Miles
O ye Seas and Floods, bless ye the Lord; praise Him and
magnify Him for ever.
Ye Seas and Floods, with voice of might
Resound His Name for evermore:
Ye rushing falls, that thunder o'er
The rifted rocks, and daze the sight:
Ye waves that with your crests of white
Incessant dash upon the shore:
Ye Seas and Floods, with voice of might
Resound His Name for evermore.
Ye torrents from the mountain height,
Round your grey boulders dance and roar;
Ye billows on the ocean floor.
Your hands in jubilation smite:
Ye Seas and Floods, with voice of might
Resound His Name for evermore.
