[Verse 1]
Praise to the Lord the Almighty
The King of creation
O my soul praise Him
For He is your health
And salvation
[Chorus]
Come all you hear
Now to His temple draw near
Join me in glad adoration
[Verse 2]
Praise to the Lord above
All things so wondrously reigning
Sheltering you under His wings
And so gently sustaining
[Chorus]
Have you not seen
All that is needful has been
Sent by His gracious ordaining
[Verse 3]
Praise to the Lord
Who will prosper your work
And defend you
Surely His goodness
And mercy shall daily attend you
[Chorus]
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriends you
[Bridge]
Joyful joyful we adore Thee
God of glory Lord of love
Hearts unfold like
Flowers before Thee
Opening to the Sun above
[Verse 4]
Praise to the Lord
O let all that is in me
Adore Him
All that has life and breath
Come now with praises
Before Him
[Chorus]
Let the Amen
Sound from His people again
Gladly forever adore Him
