Sing Praise to God, the Highest Good
Author: Frances E. Cox, 1812-1897; Johann J. Schütz, 1640-1690 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #542 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God, the highest good,
The author of creation,
The God of love who understood
Our need for his salvation.
With healing balm our souls he fills
And ev'ry faithless murmur stills:
To God all praise and glory!
2 What God’s almighty pow'r has made,
In mercy he is keeping;
By morning glow or evening shade,
His eye is never sleeping;
Within the kingdom of his might
All things are just and good and right:
To God all praise and glory!
3 We sought the Lord in our distress;
O God, in mercy hear us.
Our Savior saw our helplessness
And came with peace to cheer us.
For this we thank and praise the Lord
Who is by one and all adored:
To God all praise and glory!
4 Let all who name Christ’s holy name
Give God the praise and glory.
Let all who know his pow'r proclaim
Aloud the wondrous story.
Cast ev'ry idol from its throne,
For God is God, and he alone:
To God all praise and glory! Topics: Epiphany 8; Close of Service; Praise, Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: LOBT GOTT DEN HERREN, IHR
