Alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness! 3 Father-like He tends and spares us, Well our feeble frame He knows; In His hands He gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes: Alleluia! Alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows! 4 Angels in the heights adore Him, Who behold Him face to face; Sun and moon, bow down before Him; Dwellers all in time and space: Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace! Amen. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: REGENT SQUARE

Praise God most high, praise God with me! To God all praise and glory! 5 The Lord is never far away, Forsakes his people never; He is their refuge and their stay, Their peace and trust forever; And with a mother's watchful love He guides them wheresoe'er thy rove; To God all praise and glory! 6 When every earthly hope has flown From sorrow's sons and daughters, Our Father from His heavenly throne Beholds the troubled waters; And at His word the storm is stayed Which made His children's heart afraid: To God all praise and glory. 7 Thus all my pilgrimage along I'll sing aloud Thy praises, That men may hear the grateful song My voice unwearied raises: Be joyful in the Lord, my heart! Both soul and body, bear your part! To God all praise and glory! 8 O ye who bear Christ’s holy name, Give God all praise and glory! All ye who own His power, proclaim Aloud the wondrous story; Cast each false idol from His throne, The Lord is God, and He alone: To God all praise and glory!
