38. PRAISE, The Lord! Ye Heav’ns

Verse 1

Praise, the Lord! ye heav’ns adore Him;

Praise Him, angels, in the height;

Sun and moon, rejoice before Him;

Praise Him, all ye stars of light.

 

Praise the Lord, for He hath spoken;

Worlds His mighty voice obeyed;

Laws which never shall be broken

For their guidance He hath made.

 

Verse 2

Praise the Lord, for He is glorious;

Never shall His promise fail;

God hath made His saints victorious;

Sin and death shall not prevail.

 

Praise the God of our salvation;

Hosts on high, His power proclaim;

Heaven and earth, and all creation,

Laud and magnify His name.

 

Verse 3

Worship, honor, glory, blessing,

Lord, we offer unto Thee;

Young and old, Thy praise expressing,

In glad homage bend the knee.

 

All the saints in heaven adore Thee;

We would bow before Thy throne;

As Thine angels serve before Thee,

So on earth Thy will be done.
