EN 1933 Praise to the Holiest in the Height
Ps.148.1
Versi Version 1
1
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all His words most wonderful,
Most sure in all His ways.
2
O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
A second Adam to the fight
And to the rescue came.
3
O wisest love! that flesh and blood,
Which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against the foe,
Should strive and should prevail.
4
And that a higher gift than grace
Should flesh and blood refine,
God’s Presence and His very Self,
And Essence all divine.
5
O generous love! that He, who smote,
In Man for man the foe,
The double agony in Man
For man should undergo.
6
And in the garden secretly,
And on the Cross on high,
Should teach His brethren, and inspire
To suffer and to die.
7
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all His words most wonderful,
Most sure in all His ways.
