Refrain: Praise Him with anthems glorious, Praise Him in ev’ry clime; Sing of His love victorious, Praise Him with strains sublime; Sing for His banner beautiful, Over all flags unfurled; Sing, for His goodness and mercy are saving the world. 2 Ye who have faith in the grace that redeems you, extol His love; Sing, till your voices are heard in the mansions of bliss above; Speed a glad song thro’ the aisles of the heavens, on joyous wings, Sing till the universe tremble with praise for the King of kings. [Refrain] 3 Out of the darkness and sin He is leading each tribe and race, Saving, and lifting them out of their fetters, by saving grace; Jesus is worthy of all adoration and joyous praise; Serve Him and trust Him, oh, love and adore Him for countless days.
