Ye Righteous, In The Lord Rejoice

by SCOTTISH PARAPHRASE

Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice;
It comely is and right,
That upright Men with thankful voice
Should praise the Lord of might.
Jehovah praise with harp, to him
Praise Him in righteousness
Anew song to him sing, and play
With loud noise skillfully.
For right's the Lord's word all his work
Is done in verity
For he did speak the word, and done
It was without delay.
To Judgement and to righteousness
A love he beareth still
The loving-kindness of the Lord
The earth throughout doth fill
The heavens by Jehovah's word
Did their beginning take;
And by the breathing of his mouth
He all their hosts did make.
The waters of the seas he brings
Together as an heap;
And in storehouses, as it were,
He layeth up the deep
Let earth, and all that live therein
With reverence fear the Lord;
Let all the world inhabitants
Dread Him with one accord
