10422. Praise And Magnify Our King

1 Great is the Lord, who ruleth over all!
Wake, wake and sing, wake, wake and sing;
Down at His feet in adoration fall.
Praise and magnify our king.

Refrain:
O ye redeemed above,
Strike, strike your harps of love;
Hail the Blessèd One,
Hail the Mighty One.
Sweetly His wonders tell,
Loudly His glory swell,
Praise and magnify our king.

2 Great is the Lord, who spake and it was done;
Wake, wake and sing, wake, wake and sing;
Honor and strength, dominion He has won,
Praise and magnify our king. [Refrain]

3 Great is the Lord: oh, come with holy mirth;
Wake, wake and sing, wake, wake and sing;
Come and rejoice, ye nations of the earth,
Praise and magnify our king. [Refrain]

4 Great is the Lord, and holy is His name!
Wake, wake and sing, wake, wake and sing;
Angels and men, His wondrous works proclaim,
Praise and magnify our king. [Refrain]
