Psalm 86 [Among The Princes, Earthly Gods]

________________________________________________
Title:     Psalm 86 [Among The Princes, Earthly Gods]
Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

Psalm 86. 8-13
A general song of praise to God.


Among the princes, earthly gods,
There's none hath power divine;
Nor is their nature, mighty Lord,
Nor are their works like thine.

The nations thou hast made shall bring
Their offerings round thy throne;
For thou alone dost wondrous things,
For thou art God alone.

Lord, I would walk with holy feet;
Teach me thine heavenly ways,
And my poor scatter'd thoughts unite
In God my Father's praise.

Great is thy mercy, and my tongue
Shall those sweet wonders tell,
How by thy grace my sinking soul
Rose from the deeps of hell.


[The end]
Isaac Watts's poem: Psalm 86 [Among The Princes, Earthly Gods]
