you people of his choice!
Stand up and bless the Lord your God,
with heart and soul and voice.
2 Though high above all praise,
above all blessing high,
who would not fear his holy name,
and laud and magnify?
3 O for the living flame
from his own altar brought,
to touch our lips, our minds inspire,
and wing to heav'n our thought!
4 God is our strength and song,
and his salvation ours;
then be his love in Christ proclaimed
with all our ransomed pow'rs.
5 Stand up, and bless the Lord!
The Lord, your God, adore!
Stand up, and bless his glorious name,
henceforth, for evermore. Topics: Adoration and praise; Adoration and praise; Worship Scripture: Nehemiah 9:5 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
