Praise ye 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;
Join me in glad adoration!
Praise ye the Lord, who o’er all things
So wondrously reigneth,
Shelters thee under His wings,
Yes so gently sustaineth!
Has thou not seen
How thy longings have been
Granted in what He ordaineth.
Praise ye the Lord, who with
Marvelous wisdom hath made thee!
Decked thee with health, and with loving
hand guided and stayed thee;
How oft in grief hath not
He brought thee relief,
Spreading His wings for to shade thee!
Praise ye the Lord, O 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.
Praise ye the Lord, Who doth prosper
Thy work and defend thee;
Surely His goodness and mercy
Here daily attend thee.
Ponder anew what the Almightly can do,
If with His love He befriend thee.
