37. We, Your People, Praise You

1 We, your people, praise you, praise you, God of every nation!
We, your people, praise you, praise you, Lord of hosts eternal!
Days of wonder, days of beauty, days of rapture, filled with light,
tell your goodness, tell your mercies, tell your glorious might.
We, your people, praise you, praise you, praise you evermore!

2 We, your people, praise you, praise you, God of every nation!
We, your people, praise you, praise you, Lord of hosts eternal!
For your blessings, for your bounty, joyful songs to you we sing,
songs of glory, songs of triumph to our God and King.
We, your people, praise you, praise you, praise you evermore!
