Psalm 113 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AB CCDEED FFGHHG IIJKLJ HHMNOM

Proper tuneA
The majesty and condescension of GodB
-
Ye that delight to serve the LordC
The honors of his name recordC
His sacred name for ever blessD
Where'er the circling sun displaysE
His rising beams or setting raysE
Let lands and seas his power confessD
-
Not time nor nature's narrow roundsF
Can give his vast dominion boundsF
The heav'ns are far below his heightG
Let no created greatness dareH
With our eternal God compareH
Armed with his uncreated mightG
-
He bows his glorious head to viewI
What the bright hosts of angels doI
And bends his care to mortal thingsJ
His sovereign hand exalts the poorK
He takes the needy from the doorL
And makes them company for kingsJ
-
When childless families despairH
He sends the blessing of an heirH
To rescue their expiring nameM
The mother with a thankful voiceN
Proclaims his praises and her joysO
Let every age advance his fameM
