Praise to the Lord almighty

 

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of

                                                                        creation;

O my soul, praise Him for he is thy wealth and

                                                                        salvation,

All ye who hear,

Brothers and sisters draw near,

Praise him in glad adoration!

Praise the Lord, Who doth prosper thy work and

                                                            defend thee;

Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend

 thee;

 

Ponder a new

What the Almighty can do,

If with his love He befriend thee.

Praise to the Lord, when tempests their warfare are waging

Who, when the elements around the are raging,

 

Biddeth them cease

Turn their fury to peace,

Whirlwinds and waters assuaging.

Praise to the Lord Who, when darkness and sin is abounding,

Who when the godless do triumph all virtue confounding

 

Sheddeth his light

Chaseth the horrors of night

Saints with his mercy surrounding

Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him

All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him
