Praise Him

1 In praise to him who built the tow'ring hills,
Sing, O Jerusalem;
In praise to him the flowing stream who fills,
Sing, O Jerusalem.
In praise to him who lights each glowing star,
That sparkles in the sky afar,
Lift up your voice and joyful sing
In alleluias to your King.

Chorus:
Praise the Lord, in song resounding,
For his grace, so rich, abounding;
We will praise thee, praise thee,
Praise thee evermore!
Glad songs we'll sing to thee our King,
And e'er adore!

2 In praise to him who wakes the welcome morn,
Sing, O Jerusalem;
Who bids it glow with beams of light newborn,
Sing, O Jerusalem.
He draws the shadows of a resting night,
Like curtains, o'er our wearied sight,
And bids us, free from toil and care,
Great measure of his mercies share. [Chorus]

3 In praise to him who sheds his love abroad,
Sing, O Jerusalem;
In alleluias to your Maker, God,
Sing, O Jerusalem.
To Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now
Our hands we lift, our souls we bow;
Blest Trinity, to thee we raise
Our lasting songs of love and praise. [Chorus]
