Text: | Bless the Lord, my soul! |
Author: | Eliza Edmunds Hewitt |
Tune: | PRAISE HIM |
Composer: | John R. Sweney |
1 Praise the King of Glory, He is God alone;
Praise Him for the wonders He to us hath shown;
For His promised presence all the pilgrim way,
For the flaming pillar, and the cloud by day.
Refrain:
Praise Him, shining angels, strike your harps of gold;
All His hosts adore Him, who His face behold
Through His great dominion, while the ages roll,
All His works shall praise Him; bless the Lord, my soul!
2 Praise Him for redemption, free to every soul;
Praise Him for the Fountain that can make us whole;
For His gifts of kindness and His loving care,
For the blest assurance that He answers prayer.
3 Praise Him for the trials sent as cords of love,
Binding us more closely to the things above;
For the faith that conquers, hope that naught can dim,
For the land where loved ones gather unto Him.
