LyicsPRAISE, my soul, the King of heaven;
To his feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like thee his praise should sing?
Praise him, praise him,
Praise the everlasting King.
Praise him for his grace and favor
To our fathers in distress;
Praise him, still the same forever,
Slow to chide and swift to bless;
Praise him, praise him,
Glorious in his faithfulness.
Father-like he tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hands he gently bears us-
Rescues us from all our foes:
Praise him, praise him,
Widely as his mercy flows.
