O praise the Lord! He loves to hear you singing

Author: Georg Gessner
Tune: [Lobt froh den Herrn]
Published in 13 hymnals

Representative Text

1. O praise the Lord! He loves to hear you singing;
In sweet accord Loud let your praise be ringing:
O praise the Lord, O praise the Lord!

2. We bless thee, Lord, While ev'ry heart rejoices,
Thy name adored We sing with grateful voices;
We bless thee, Lord, We bless thee, Lord!

3. Then evermore In ev'ry land and nation
Tell o'er and o'er The tidings of salvation
Forevermore, Forevermore.
