Representative Text

1 I’ll sing the praise of Jesus, my Savior,
Who sets my spirit free;
He gave His life a ransom for many,
He gave His life for me.

Chorus:
I’ll praise Him, praise Him,
I’ll praise Him in service and song;
My highest joy, my chief delight,
Is praising Him all day long.

2 I’ll sing the praise of Jesus, my Savior,
And tell His love abroad;
He fills my soul with rapture, rejoicing,
He leads me home to God. [Chorus]

3 I’ll sing the praise of Jesus, my Savior,
Who hears my feeblest cry;
A Friend in times of sorrow and trouble,
A Friend that’s ever nigh. [Chorus]
