41. Stand Up and Bless the Lord

1 Stand up and bless the Lord,
you people of His choice,
stand up and bless the Lord your God
with heart and soul and voice.

2 Though high above all praise,
above all blessing high,
who would not fear His holy name,
give thanks and glorify?

3 God is our strength and song,
and his salvation ours;
then be his love in Christ proclaimed
with all our ransomed powers.

4 Stand up and bless the Lord,
the Lord your God adore;
stand up and bless his glorious name,
both now and evermore.
