Lyics

STAND up and bless the Lord,

Ye people of his choice;

Stand up and bless the Lord your God,

With heart, and soul, and voice.



O for the living flame,

From his own altar brought,

To touch our lips, our minds inspire,

And raise to heaven our thought.



God is our strength and song,

And his salvation ours;

Then be his love in Christ proclaim'd

With all our ransom'd powers.



Stand up and bless the Lord,

The Lord your God adore,

Stand up, and bless his glorious name,

Henceforth for evermore.
