Hymns to the Living God‎#32

Text:

O Praise Ye the LORD

1 O praise ye the LORD
and sing a new song,
amid all His saints
His praises prolong;
the praise of their Maker
His people shall sing,
and children of Zion
rejoice in their King.

2 With timbrel and harp
and joyful acclaim,
with gladness and mirth,
sing praise to His Name;
for God in His people
His pleasure doth seek,
with robes of salvation
He clotheth the meek.

3 In glory exult,
ye saints of the LORD;
with songs in the night
high praises accord;
go forth in His service,
be strong in His might
to conquer all evil
and stand for the right.

4 For this is His word:
His saints shall not fail,
but over the earth
their pow'r shall prevail;
all kingdoms and nations
shall yield to their sway.
to God give the glory
and praise Him for aye.
