PRAISE, MY SOUL, THE KING OF HEAVEN

  Lyrics

Verse 1
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven
to his feet thy tribute bring
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven
who like me his praise should sing
Praise him, praise him
praise him, praise him
praise the everlasting King

Verse 2
Praise him for his grace and favour
to his people in distress
Praise him, still the same as ever
slow to chide and swift to bless
Praise him, praise him
praise him, praise him
praise him for his faithfulness

Verse 3
Father-like he tends and spares us
well our feeble frame he knows
In his hand he gently bears us
rescues us from all our foes
Praise him, praise him
praise him, praise him
widely as his mercy flows

Verse 4
Angels, help us to adore him
ye behold him face to face
Sun and moon bow down before him
dwellers all, in time and space
Praise him, praise him
praise him, praise him
praise with us the God of grace
