1 Come, sound his praise abroad, And hymns of glory sing; Jehovah is the sovereign God, The universal King.
He form'd the deeps unknown; He gave the seas their bound; The watery worlds are all his own, And all the solid ground.
3 Come, worship at his throne, Come bow before the Lord: We are his works and not our own; He form'd us by his word.
4 To-day attend his voice, Nor dare provoke his rod; Come like the people of his choice, And own your gracious God.
5 But if your ears refuse The language of his grace, And hearts grow hard, like stubborn Jews, That unbelieving race;
6 The Lord in vengeance drest Will lift his hand and swear, "You that despise my promis'd rest, "Shall have no portion there."
