18. Praise the Lord Who Reigns Above

1 Praise the Lord who reigns above
And keeps His court below;
Praise the holy God of love,
And all His greatness show;
Praise Him for His noble deeds,
Praise Him for His matchless pow'r;
Him from whom all good proceeds
Let earth and heav'n adore.

2 Celebrate th'eternal God
With harp and psaltery,
Timbrels soft and cymbals loud
In His high praise agree;
Praise Him every tuneful string;
All the reach of heav'nly art,
All the pow'rs of music bring,
The music of the heart.

3 Him, in whom they move and live,
Let every creature sing,
Glory to their Maker give,
And homage to their King.
Hallowed be His name beneath,
As in heav'n on earth adored;
Praise the Lord in every breath,
Let all things praise the Lord.

Amen.
