Published in 1 hymnal

Representative Text

1. Praise God: praise him in's house below:
Praise him ye heavens, his power which show.
2. Praise him for all his mighty deeds;
Praise him whose majesty exceeds.
3. Praise him with trumpet's piercing noise;
Praise him with psalteies, harps soft voice.
4. Praise him with timbrel shrill, and flute;
Praise him with organ, and sweet lute.

5. Praise him with cymbals ringing veins;
Praise him in cymbals loftiest strains.
6. Praise him let every breathing thing;
Praises eternal to him sing.
