92. Praise Ye the Lord

1 Praise ye the Lord, the God of our salvation,
Lift up your hearts and magnify His name;
Praise ye the Lord with holy adoration,
Tell of His pow’r His mighty works proclaim.

Refrain:
Praise ye the Lord, ye angel choirs adore Him,
Cherubim and Seraphim cast your crowns before Him;
Prophets and martyrs swell the joyful song,
Honor and majesty to Him belong.

2 Praise ye the Lord whose truth abideth ever,
Trust in His word who marks the sparrow’s fall;
Hope in His love whose mercy faileth never,
Look unto Him who watcheth over all. [Refrain]

3 Praise Him, ye stars, the arch of night adorning,
Ye who beheld the new creation’s worth;
Ye who rejoiced to usher in the morning,
Bright with the smile that hailed Messiah’s birth. [Refrain]

4 Strike, strike your harps, ye sainted ones in glory,
Ye who have passed within the gates of light;
Shout, shout aloud redemption’s hallowed story,
While with the King ye walk in spotless white. [Refrain]
