Author: Henry F. Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: Psalms of Grace #147d (2022) First Line: O praise the LORD, 'tis sweet to raise Lyrics: 1 O praise the LORD, 'tis sweet to raise,
The grateful heart to God in praise;
When fallen raised, when lost restored,
O it is sweet to praise the LORD!
2 Great is His power, Divine His skill,
His love Diviner, greater still;
The sinner's Friend, the mourner's Stay,
He send no suppliant sad away.
3 The lions roar to Him for bread,
The ravens by His hand are fed;
And shall His chosen flock despair:
Shall they mistrust their Shepherd's care?
4 His Church is precious in His sight;
He makes her glory His delight.
His treasures on her head are poured;
O Zion's children, praise the LORD!
