Praise To The Lord

Fernando Ortega


Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, 
The king of creation. 
Oh my soul praise him 
For he is thy health and salvation. 
All ye who hear, 
Now to his temple draw near, 
Join me in glad adoration. 

Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things 
So wondrously reigneth. 
Shelters thee under his wings 
Yes so gently sustaineth. 
Hast thou not seen 
How all thy longings have been 
Granted in what he ordaineth. 

Praise to the Lord, who doth 
Prosper thy work and defend thee. 
Surely his goodness and mercy 
Here daily attend thee. 
Ponder anew what the Almighty can do, 
If with his love he befriend thee. 

Praise to the Lord, oh let 
All that is in me adore him. 
All that hath life and breath 
Come now with praises before him. 
Let the amen sound from his people again, 
Gladly for aye, we adore him.
