Praise to the Lord!

Praise to the Lord!
Maker of the Heavens and the earth.
All creation give Him oblation
And tell out His worth.
Praise now His Name!
Praise Him for the work of redeeming Love!
Joy unending: the Spirit's sending
Us daily Grace from above.


     Great is our Lord: Repeat the story
     of saving Love that saved a wretch like me!
     Shout out His praise—the God of Glory
     has made me His child, set this sinful captive free!

Sing to the Lord!
Praise Him earth and angels in the heights;
Stars give glory and tell the story
When heav'n first saw Light!
Great is His Grace!
Great the Love and Mercy He showed to me:
God descended and then befriended
A wretched sinner like me!

     Great is our Lord: Repeat the story
     of saving Love that saved a wretch like me!
     Shout out His praise—the God of Glory
     has made me His child, set this sinful captive free!

Yes, I will praise—
Praise the Rock that never will be moved!
Jubilation and exultation
Since all my sin's removed!
Sing out for joy!
Praise the Lord of Hosts and loudly exclaim:
Fetters broken since Grace has spoken;
Oh shout and praise His dear name!

     Great is our Lord: Repeat the story
     of saving Love that saved a wretch like me!
     Shout out His praise—the God of Glory
     has made me His child, set this sinful captive free!
