Psalms, Hymns, and Scripture Chants for Christians ‎#84

84. Praise Jehovah! bless His name

1 Praise Jehovah! bless His name;
Praise Him from the heavens above;
All on high His praise proclaim,
Angels who enjoy His love.

2 All His hosts in praise unite,
Sun and moon the chorus raise;
Praise Him all ye stars of light;
Join ye heavens of heavens in praise.

3 Clouds, that heaven above pervade,
Praise Jehovah, night and day;
His command has all things made;
His decree they still obey.

4 Praise the Lord from earth below;
Huge sea monsters, ocean deeps;
Fire and vapour, hail and snow;
Stormy wind, His word that keeps:

5 Mountains, hills, His praise proclaim,
Fruitful trees, and cedars high;
Savage beasts and cattle tame,
Creeping things, and fowls that fly.

6 Kings and people swell the song,
Princes, judges, join the lay;
Tender virgins, young men strong,
Hoary age, and childhood gay:

7 Let them praise Jehovah's name;
Excellence is His alone;
High above the earth His fame,
High above the heavens 'tis known.

8 He exalts His people's might;
All His saints His praise record;
Near to God, His chief delight
Israel is:--Praise ye the Lord!
