Praise, My Soul,the King of Heaven ================================== w: Henry F. Lyte, 1834 m: John Goss, 1869 Tune: Lauda Anima Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7. [Verse 1] Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven; To His feet thy tribute bring. Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Evermore His praises sing: Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia! Praise the everlasting King. [Verse 2] Praise Him for His grace and favor To our fathers in distress; Praise Him still the same as ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless. Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness. [Verse 3] Fatherlike He tends and spares us, Well our feeble frame He knows; In His hands He gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows. [Verse 4] Frail as summer’s flow’r we flourish, Blows the wind and it is gone; But while mortals rise and perish, Our God lives unchanging on. Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia! Praise the high Eternal One! [Verse 5] 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, alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace.
