Refrain: Praise Him in the sanctuary, Praise Him in our song and prayer; Praise Him, day and night adore Him, Praise Him, praise Him everywhere. [Refrain] 2 When our hearts are full of gladness, Which we joyfully proclaim, How it cheers the sad and lonely! How it magnifies His name! [Refrain] 3 Praise Him when the heart is heavy For His children near or far; Joyfully we’ll bear their burden To our God who answers prayer. [Refrain] 4 When the clouds above us hover, And the hosts of hell are near, Shout His praises, hallelujah! Christ will make them disappear. [Refrain] 5 Praise Him for the love He’s given, Praise Him while He lendeth breath; Praise Him round the throne in heaven, Praise Him through the vale of death. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Let the gates of praise be open] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/A_Song_of_Praise); Faith Publishing House, Evening Light Songs, 1949, edited 1987 (53); The Gospel Trumpet Company, Select Hymns, 1911 (586)

A Psalm of David when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed

Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 34 First Line: I will the Lord in seasons all Lyrics: 1 I will the Lord in seasons all Bless in humility, And in my mouth his praises shall, Abide continually. 2 My soul shall in Jehovah make With joy her boasting chear: The humble shall great pleasure take When they hereof shall hear. 3 With me together O do ye Jehovah magnifie; And let us all herein agree, To lift his name on high. 4 When I Jehovah sought unto, The he to me gave ear: He me delivered also From all that was my fear. 5 They look'd to him and lightned were, No shame did them appall 6 The poor man cry'd, the Lord did hear, And sav'd from troubles all. 7 The Lord his Angel ev'ry where Incampeth round about Each one of them that do him fear, from ill to free them out. 8 How bountiful Jehovah is, O taste and see likewise; O great is that man's blessedness Whose trust on him relies! 9 O see that ye Jehovah fear, His holy ones that be! Because that such as do him fear No want at all shall see. 10 Young lions they are brought to want And suffer lack of food: But they that fear the Lord, no want Shall have of any good. [2] 11 O come ye children unto me, Give you attentive ear; And I will you instruct how ye The Lord aright shall fear. 12 Who is the man whose heart is bent That long his life may be, Who loveth days, and hath intent Prosperity to see? 13 Thy tongue from ill, thy lips also From speaking guile keep thou. 14 Depart from evil, and do good, Seek peace and it pursue. 15 Upon the men that righteous are The Lord doth set his eye; And likewise he doth bow his ear, When unto him they cry. 16 Jehovah's face is set against Them that do wickedly. That he of them from off the land May cut the memory. 17 When as the righteous men do cry, The Lord doth hear their call; And gives to them delivery Out of their troubles all. 18 Jehovah near is such unto As broken-hearted be; Whose spirit contrite is also Ev'n such ones save will he 19 The just man's griefs are many a one, From all God sets him free; 20 He keepeth all his bones that none Of them shall broken be. 21 Evil shall slay the wicked man, And whosoever hate The righteous man, ev'n all of them Shall sure be desolate. 22 Their souls that do Jehovah serve He freely doth redeem: Nor utterly shall any swerve, That put their trust in him.
