Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1855 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10787 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Come praise the Lord, exalt His name Lyrics: 1 Come praise the Lord, exalt His name,
Our Savior and our king;
’Tis meet we should His love proclaim,
And hallelujah sing.
2 The theme is high, the work is sweet;
Your harps for concert string;
’Tis blessèd thus in love to meet,
And hallelujah sing.
3 How great, how precious is His name!
How poor the praise we bring!
His people still should own His claim,
And hallelujah sing.
4 Sustained by faith, and upward borne,
As if on eagle’s wing,
We praise our Lord, forget to mourn,
And hallelujah sing.
5 A day will come, its dawn we greet,
When Heav’n itself shall ring;
When all the saints with joy shall meet,
And hallelujah sing. Languages: English Tune Title: APOCALYPSE
Come, Praise The Lord
