Yea, I will laud Him until death. With songs and anthems I'll come before Him As long as He doth give me breath. From Him my life and all things came; Bless, O my soul, His holy name. Allelujah, allelujah! 2 Trust not in princes, they are but mortal; Earth-born they are and soon decay. Naught are their counsels at life's last portal, When the dark grave doth claim its prey. Since mortals can no help afford, Trust ye in Christ, our God and Lord. Allelujah, allelujah! 3 Blessed, yea, blessed is he forever Whose help is in the Lord most high, Whom from the saving faith naught can sever, And who in hope to Christ draws nigh. To all who trust in Him, our Lord, Counsel and aid He doth afford. Allelujah, allelujah! 4 God the Almighty, the great Creator, Ruler of sky and land and sea, All things ordained, and sooner or later They come to pass unfailingly. His rule is over rich and poor, His promise ever standeth sure. Allelujah, allelujah! 5 Penitent sinners, for mercy crying, Pardon and peace from Him obtain; Ever the wants of the poor supplying, Their faithful God He doth remain. He helps His children in distress, The widows and the fatherless. Allelujah, allelujah! 6 Praise, all you nations, the name so holy Of Him who doth such wondrous things! All that hath being, to praise Him solely, With happy heart its Amen sings! Children of God, with angel host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! Allelujah, allelujah!

Put no confidence in princes, nor on human help depend. They shall die, to dust returning; all their thoughts and plans shall end. 2 Happy is the one who chooses Jacob's God to be his aid. They are blest whose hope of blessing on the LORD their God is stayed. Heaven and earth the LORD created, seas and all that they contain. He delivers from oppression; righteousness he will maintain. 3 Food he daily gives the hungry, sets the mourning prisoner free, raises those bowed down with anguish, makes the sightless eyes to see. God our Savior loves the righteous, and the stranger he befriends, helps the orphan and the widow, judgment on the wicked sends. 4 Praise the LORD! Sing hallelujah! Come, our great Redeemer praise. I will sing the glorious praises of my God through all my days. Over all God reigns forever; through all ages he is King. Unto him, your God, O Zion, joyful hallelujahs sing.

Everything rejoices in the mellow rays; all earth's thousand voices swell the psalm of praise. 2 See God's mercy streaming over all the world, and his banner gleaming, everywhere unfurled. Broad and deep and glorious, as the heaven above, shines in might victorious his eternal love. 3 Lord, upon our blindness your pure radiance pour; for your loving-kindness make us love you more. And, when clouds are drifting dark across the sky, then, the veil uplifting, Father, still be nigh. 4 We will never doubt you, though you veil your light; life is dark without you; death with you is bright. Light of light, shine o'er us on our pilgrim way; still go on before us, to the endless day.
