About this Hymn
This paraphrase comes from verses 23–26 and 30–31 of Psalm 22, which Episcopal minister Christopher Webber calls the "spiritual center" of the Psalms: "No other text so effectively ties together the Old and New Testaments, and no other text so bluntly reminds us of who we are and who God is."
Lyrics
Verse 1
All you that fear Jehovah's name, his glory tell, his praise proclaim; you children of his chosen race, stand now in awe before his face.
Verse 2
The suff'ring One he has not spurned, who unto him for help has turned; from him he has not hid his face, but answered his request in grace.
Verse 3
O Lord, your goodness makes me raise amid your people songs of praise; before all them that fear you, now I worship you and pay my vow.
Verse 4
For all the meek you will provide, they shall be fed and satisfied; all they that seek the Lord shall live and never-ending praises give.
Verse 5
The Lord's unfailing righteousness all generations shall confess; from age to age shall men be taught what wondrous works the Lord has wrought.
