View Lyrics
Praise the Lord who reigns above
and keeps His courts below;
praise the holy God of love,
and all His greatness show.
Praise Him for His noble deeds,
praise Him for His matchless pow'r;
Him from whom all good proceeds
let earth and heav'n adore.
Celebrate the eternal God
with harp and psaltery;
timbrels soft and cymbals loud
in their high praise agree.
Praise Him, every tuneful string,
all the reach of heav'nly art;
all the pow'rs of music bring,
the music of the heart.
God, in whom they move and live,
let every creature sing,
glory to their Maker give,
and homage to their King.
Hallowed be His name beneath,
as in heav'n, on earth adored;
praise the Lord in every breath,
let all things praise the Lord!
and keeps His courts below;
praise the holy God of love,
and all His greatness show.
Praise Him for His noble deeds,
praise Him for His matchless pow'r;
Him from whom all good proceeds
let earth and heav'n adore.
Celebrate the eternal God
with harp and psaltery;
timbrels soft and cymbals loud
in their high praise agree.
Praise Him, every tuneful string,
all the reach of heav'nly art;
all the pow'rs of music bring,
the music of the heart.
God, in whom they move and live,
let every creature sing,
glory to their Maker give,
and homage to their King.
Hallowed be His name beneath,
as in heav'n, on earth adored;
praise the Lord in every breath,
let all things praise the Lord!
