Christian Worship Seasons.
With songs and honors sounding loud,
Address the Lord on high;
O’er all the heavens he spreads his cloud,
And waters veil the sky.
He sends his showers of blessings down,
To cheer the plains below;
He makes the grass the mountains crown,
And corn in valleys grow.
His steady councils change the face
Of each declining year;
He bids the sun cut short his race,
And wintry days appear.
On us his providence has shone,
With gentle, smiling rays;
O, may our lips and lives make known
His goodness and his praise.
