Words: Henry Williams Baker Music: Charles Hubert Hastings Parry
1 O praise ye the Lord!
Praise Him in the height;
Rejoice in His word,
Ye angels of light;
Ye heavens adore Him
By whom ye were made,
And worship before Him,
In brightness arrayed.
2 O praise ye the Lord!
Praise Him upon earth
In tuneful accord,
Ye sons of new birth;
Praise Him who hath brought you
His grace from above,
Praise Him who hath taught you
To sing of His love.
3 O praise ye the Lord!
All things that give sound;
Each jubilant chord
Re-echo around;
Loud organs, His glory
Forth tell in deep tone,
And sweet harp the story
Of what He hath done.
4 O praise ye the Lord!
Thanksgiving and song
To Him be outpoured
All ages along;
For love in creation,
For Eden restored,
For grace of salvation,
O praise ye the Lord.
