The Cyber Hymnal ‎#13787

13787. Let The Lord Be Praised, O Zion!

1 Let the Lord be praised, O Zion!
Magnify His holy name.
In triumphant adoration,
Far and near His praise proclaim.

Refrain:
Prince of Peace, o’er death victorious,
Countless hosts their voices raise,
Hear the cry from the walls of Zion,
Let the Lord be praised.

2 Shout aloud, ye hosts victorious,
Conquerors in His worthy cause,
Spare ye not the homage due Him,
Look not for the world’s applause. [Refrain]

3 Praise Him, all creation, praise Him,
Heav’n and earth unite and sing
Praises to this mighty Ruler,
Whom the angels crowned their king. [Refrain]
