4 And as my life is onward gliding, With each fresh scene anew I mark Where all seems troubled, strange, and dark: Ye lands, to the Lord make a Glo-ry be to God! O serve Him with joy, in His presence now re To bless Him and thank Him, our voices we will raise; 4 For good is the Lord, and His mercy is sure; Glory be to God! To all generations His truth shall still endure; 12 8, 7, 8 L. F. J. Haydn, 1797 4 Praise the Lord, ye heavens, a-dore Him, Praise Him, an-gels, in the height; 04 204 t Sun and moon, re-joice before Him; Praise Him, all ye stars of light. Praise the Lord, for He hath spok-en; Worlds His mighty voice o-beyed; Laws which nev-er shall be brok-en, For their guidance He hath made. 2 Praise the Lord, for He is glorious; Foundling Chapel Coll., 1796 2 Praise God, who to the cross and grave Hath sent His Son from heaven; His death that did the guilty save, Eternal life hath given. He hath redeemed our souls from hell; Now peace from God with men doth dwell; O bless His name forever! 3 Praise God, who by His Spirit's light His word doth light our heavenward way; His grace inclines us to obey; 4 Ye mighty seraphim, your praise dore, Him first, Him last, Him evermore: O bless His name forever! |
