Hymn #58
To render thanks unto the Lord
Psalm 92 Bishopthorpe Paraphrase, Scottish Psalter 1650 Music: Jeremiah Clarke (c.1674-1707) paraphrase To render thanks unto the Lord,it is a comely thing,
and to thy name, O thou Most High,
due praise aloud to sing.
Thy loving kindness to show forth
when shines the morning light,
and to declare thy faithfulness
with pleasure every night,
upon a ten-stringed instrument,
up on the psaltery,
and on the harp with solemn sound,
and grave sweet melody.
For thou, Lord, by thy mighty works
hast made my heart right glad,
and I will triumph in the works
which by thy hands were made.
