O praise ye Name of Jehovah,
Proclaim ye His glory abroad;
O praise Him, ye servants
appointed
To stand in the house of our
God.
O praise ye the Lord for
His goodness;
�Tis pleasant His praises to
sing;
His people, His chosen and
precious,
Your praises with gratitude
bring.
I know that the Lord is
almighty,
Supreme in dominion is He,
Performing His will and good
pleasure
In Heaven and in earth and the
sea.
His hand guides the clouds
in their courses,
The lightning flames forth at
His will,
The wind and the rain He
releases
His sovereign designs to
fulfill.
To ransom His people from
bondage
Great wonders and signs He
displayed;
He smote all the first-born of
Egypt,
Till Pharaoh made haste and
obeyed.
Great nations and kings that
opposed Him
Were smitten by God�s mighty
hand;
Their riches He gave to His
people,
And made them inherit the land.
Thy Name shall abide, O
Jehovah,
Through all generations
renowned;
The Lord is the Judge of His
people,
His mercies forever abound.
Men�s idols of gold and of
silver
Can speak not, nor hearken, nor
see;
Like them shall their makers be
helpless,
Unblest shall their worshippers
be.
Ye people who worship
Jehovah,
His praises with gladness
proclaim;
His servants, and all ye that
fear Him,
Sing praise to His glorious
Name.
O Church of our God, sing
His praises,
For with you and in you He
dwells;
O sing hallelujahs before Him,
Whose glory all praises excels.
