<p>Praise thou the Lord, O my soul, sing praises,<br>
|
|
Praise Him from morn till fall of night.<br>
|
|
While o’er my life His strong arm He raises,<br>
|
|
I shall sing thanks to God, my Light.<br>
|
|
Who life and soul hath given me,<br>
|
|
Be magnified eternally.<br>
|
|
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!</p>
|
|
<p>Sing, all ye nations, exalt the glory<br>
|
|
Of Him Whose arm doth valiantly<br>
|
|
All that hath life and breath, tell the story<br>
|
|
In accent strong, with voices free.<br>
|
|
Ye servants of the Triune God,<br>
|
|
Father and Son and Spirit laud!<br>
|
|
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!</p>

|
|
<p>Praise thou the Lord, O my soul, now praise Him,<br>
|
|
His praise continue until death;<br>
|
|
While I the pathways of earth am treading<br>
|
|
God shall be praised with every breath.<br>
|
|
My soul and body He did give,<br>
|
|
And waits my praise from morn till eve.<br>
|
|
O praise the Lord, O praise the Lord!
|
|
<p>Happy, yea, happy are they forever,<br>
|
|
Whose help the God of Jacob is,<br>
|
|
Who hath created the earth and heaven,<br>
|
|
The sea and all that therein is.<br>
|
|
Let all the world His praises sing,<br>
|
|
Who life and health to all doth bring.<br>
|
|
O praise the Lord, O praise the Lord!</p>
|
|
<p>If there are any who are oppressèd,<br>
|
|
He worketh justice in the tide;<br>
|
|
Food for the hungry, forlorn, distressed,<br>
|
|
The Lord in season doth provide;<br>
|
|
Those bound in chains He maketh free,<br>
|
|
His lovingkindness they shall see,<br>
|
|
O praise the Lord, O praise the Lord!</p>
|
|
<p>Praise, O ye people, the Name most glorious<br>
|
|
Of Him Who reigns Almighty King.<br>
|
|
Let all unite in one holy chorus<br>
|
|
To God our hymns of joy to bring.<br>
|
|
O Zion, with the heavenly host,<br>
|
|
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost,<br>
|
|
O praise the Lord, O praise the Lord!</p>
