The Service of Praise ‎#8

8. For Every Thing, Praise Him

1 For the tender love that bought me,
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord!
For the matchless grace that sought me,
Praise, praise the Lord!
For the burdens that seem lighter,
As my faith in him grows brighter,
For the love that makes me whiter,
Praise, O praise the Lord!

Refrain:
Praise in song and story,
Praise him for his glory,
Praise the Lord in song and story,
Praise, praise the Lord.

2 For his promises so filling,
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord!
For his peace my heart-throbs stilling,
Praise, praise the Lord!
For the blessed sun and shower,
For his all prevailing power,
To my soul a mighty tower,
Praise, O praise the Lord! [Refrain]

3 For the fount of strength e’er-flowing,
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord!
For his goodness past our knowing,
Praise, praise the Lord!
For the never-failing treasure,
Of his love in endless measure,
For his e’er enduring pleasure,
Praise, O praise the Lord! [Refrain]
