1
Praise to the Lord The Almighty the King of creation
O my soul praise Him
For He is your health and salvation
Come all who hear
Now to His temple draw near
Join me in glad adoration

2
Praise to the Lord
Above all things so wondrously reigning
Sheltering you under His wings
And so gently sustaining
Have you not seen
All that is needful has been
Sent by His gracious ordaining

3
Praise to the Lord
Who will prosper your work and defend you
Surely His goodness
And mercy shall daily attend you
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriends you

4
Praise to the Lord
O let all that is in me adore Him
All that has life and breath
Come now with praises before Him
Let the Amen
Sound from His people again
Gladly forever adore him

1
Praise to the Lord
The Almighty the King of creation
O my soul praise Him
For He is thy health and salvation
All ye who hear
Now to His temple draw near
Praise Him in glad adoration

2
Praise to the Lord
Who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth
Shelters thee under His wings
Yea so gently sustaineth
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires e’er have been
Granted in what He ordaineth

3
Praise to the Lord
Who hath fearfully wondrously made thee
Health hath vouchsafed
And, when heedlessly falling hath stayed thee
What need or grief
Ever hath failed of relief
Wings of His mercy did shade thee

4
Praise to the Lord
Who doth prosper thy work and defend thee
Surely His goodness
And mercy here daily attend thee
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriend thee

5
Praise to the Lord
Who when tempests their warfare are waging
Who when the elements
Madly around thee are raging
Biddeth them cease
Turneth their fury to peace
Whirlwinds and waters assuaging

6
Praise to the Lord
Who when darkness of sin is abounding
Who when the godless
Do triumph all virtue confounding
Sheddeth His light
Chaseth the horrors of night
Saints with His mercy surrounding

7
Praise to the Lord
Oh let all that is in me adore Him
All that hath life and breath
Come now with praises before Him
Let the Amen
Sound from His people again
Gladly for aye we adore Him
