Lyics

Praise the Lord! ye heavens adore him!

Praise him, an-gels in the height!

Sun and moon re-joice be-fore him;

Praise him, all ye stars of light!

Hal-le-lujah. A-men, A-men, A-men, A-men.



Praise the Lord! for he hath spo-ken

Worlds his might-y voice o-beyed;

Laws which nev-er shall be bro-ken,

For their guidance he hath made.

Hal-le-lujah, etc.



Praise the Lord! for he is glorious;

Nev-er shall his prom-ise fail;

God hath made his saints vic-to-rious,

Sin and death shall not pre-vail.

Hal-le-lujah, etc.



Praise the God of our sal-va-tion!

Hosts on high his power pro-claim;

Heaven and earth and all cre-a-tion,

Laud and mag-ni-fy his name!

Hal-le-lujah, etc.
