Praise to the Lord, the Almighty


Praise to the Lord, the Almighty the King of creation
O my soul praise him for he is your health and salvation
Let all who hear Now to his temple draw near
Joining in glad adoration

Praise to the Lord who o’er all things is wondrously reigning
And as on wings of an eagle uplifting sustaining
Have you not seen All that is needful has been
Sent by his gracious ordaining

Praise to the Lord who will prosper your work and defend you
Surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend you
Ponder anew What the almighty can do
If with his love he befriend you

Praise to the Lord Oh, let all that is in me adore him
All that has life and breath, come now with praises before him
Let the amen sound from his people again
Gladly forever adore him

Based on Psalms 103 and 150
