Praise my soul the King of HeavenA
To His feet Thy tribute bringB
Ransomed healed restored forgivenA
Who like me His praise should singB
Praise Him praise HimC
Praise the everlasting KingB
-
Praise Him for His grace and favourD
To our fathers in distressE
Praise Him still the same for everD
Slow to chide and swift to blessE
Praise Him praise HimC
Glorious in His faithfulnessE
-
Father like He tends and spares usE
Well our feeble frame He knowsE
In His hands He gently bears usE
Rescues us from all our foesE
Praise Him praise HimC
Widely as His mercy flowsE
-
Frail as summer's flower we flourishF
Blows the wind and it is goneG
But while mortals rise and perishF
God endures unchanging onH
Praise Him Praise HimC
Praise the high eternal OneA
-
Angels help us to adore HimC
Ye behold Him face to faceE
Sun and moon bow down before HimC
Dwellers all in time and spaceE
Praise Him praise HimC
Praise with us the God of graceE
