|
<p>Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join<br>
|
|
In work so pleasant, so divine;<br>
|
|
Now, while the flesh is mine abode,<br>
|
|
And when my soul ascends to God.</p>
|
|
<p>Praise shall employ my noblest powers,<br>
|
|
While immortality endures;<br>
|
|
My days of praise shall ne’er be past,<br>
|
|
While life, and thought, and being last.</p>
|
|
<p>Why should I make a man my trust?<br>
|
|
Princes must die and turn to dust;<br>
|
|
Their breath departs, their pomp, and power,<br>
|
|
And thoughts, all vanish in an hour.</p>
|
|
<p>Happy the man whose hopes rely<br>
|
|
On Israel’s God; He made the sky,<br>
|
|
And earth, and seas, with all their train,<br>
|
|
And none shall find His promise vain.</p>
|
|
<p>His truth forever stands secure;<br>
|
|
He saves th’ oppressed, He feeds the poor;<br>
|
|
He sends the laboring conscience peace,<br>
|
|
And grants the prisoner sweet release.</p>
|
|
<p>The Lord hath eyes to give the blind;<br>
|
|
The Lord supports the sinking mind;<br>
|
|
He helps the stranger in distress,<br>
|
|
The widow and the fatherless.</p>
|
|
<p>He loves his saints, He knows them well,<br>
|
|
But turns the wicked down to hell:<br>
|
|
Thy God, O Zion! ever reigns;<br>
|
|
Praise Him in everlasting strains.</p>
