Lyics

PRAISE the Saviour, all ye nations,
Praise him, all ye hosts above;
Shout, with joyful acclamations,
His divine, victorious love.


Be his kingdom now promoted,
Let the earth her Monarch know;
Be my all to him devoted:
To my Lord my all I owe.


With my substance I will honor
My Redeemer and my Lord;
Were ten thousand worlds my manor,
All were nothing to his word.


While the heralds of salvation
His abounding grace proclaim,
Let his friends of every station
Gladly join to spread his fame.
