184. Praise him! Praise him! Jesus, our blessèd redeemer

1 Praise him! Praise him! Jesus, our blessèd redeemer!
Sing, O earth, his wonderful love proclaim!
Hail him! Hail him, highest archangels in glory;
Strength and honour give to his holy name!
Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard his children,
In his arms he carries them all day long.

Refrain:
Praise him! Praise him!
Tell of his excellent greatness;
Praise him! Praise him!
Ever in joyful sang.

2 Praise him! Praise him! Jesus, our blessèd redeemer!
For our sins he suffered and bled and died;
He our rock, our hope of eternal salvation,
Hail him! Hail him! Jesus, the crucified!
Sound his praises! Jesus who bore our sorrows,
Love unbounded, wonderful, deep and strong.

3 Praise him! Praise him! Jesus, our blessèd redeemer!
Heavenly portals loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Saviour, reigneth for ever and ever;
Crown him! Crown him! Prophet and priest and King!
Christ is coming, over the world victorious;
Power and glory unto the Lord belong.
