Text: | Praise to the Lord |
Author: | Joachim Neander, 1650-1680 |
Translator: | Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 |
Tune: | LOBE DEN HERREN |
1 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation!
O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation!
Come, all who hear:
Now to his temple draw near,
Joining in glad adoration!
2 Praise to the Lord, above all things so wondrously reigning,
Shelt'ring you under his wings, and so gently sustaining.
Have you not seen
All that is needful has been
Sent by his gracious ordaining?
3 Praise to the Lord, who will prosper your work and defend you;
Surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend you.
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
As with his love he befriends you.
4 Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore him!
All that has life and breath, come now with praises before him!
Let the "Amen!"
Sound from his people again,
Gladly with praise we adore him!
