1 Praise the Lord, praise our King,
Christ, who doth salvation bring.
All on earth and all in Heaven
Shall His gracious name confess:
All into His hands are given;
And our prayer and praise He waits to bless.
Praise the Lord, praise our King.

2 Praise the Lord, praise our King;
Zion, thy Redeemer sing.
He the Word who formed creation,
Took our flesh for us to die;
Him let every tribe and nation
With united praises glorify.
Praise the Lord, praise our King.

3 Praise the Lord, praise our King:
Angels Him their Lord proclaim.
Soon again this King descendeth:
All shall stand before His throne.
Lo! His voice the mountains rendeth!
Then will He that day His chosen own.
Praise the Lord; praise His name!
