PRAISE HYMN.

By Harriet Auber

“O that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness.”
Sing praise to God who reigns above, The God of all creation, The God of power, the God of love, The God of our salvation; With healing balm my soul he fills, And every faithless murmur stills: To God all praise and glory.
The angel host, O King of kings, Thy praise forever telling, In earth and sky all living things Beneath thy shadow dwelling, Adore the wisdom which could span, And power which formed creation’s plan: To God all praise and glory.
What God’s Almighty power hath made His gracious mercy keepeth; By morning glow or evening shade His watchful eye ne’er sleepeth; Within the kingdom of his might Lo! all is just and all is right: To God all praise and glory.
The Lord is never far away, But, through all grief distressing, An ever-present help and stay, Our peace and joy and blessing; As with a mother’s tender hand, He leads his own, his chosen band: To God all praise and glory.
Thus all my toilsome way along I sing aloud thy praises, That men may hear the grateful song My voice unwearied raises. Be joyful in the Lord, my heart; Both soul and body bear your part: To God all praise and glory. —Harriet Auber.
