English text
- 1.
- Sing praise to the Lord! Praise Him in the height;
- Rejoice in His Word, you angels of light.
- You heavens, adore Him by Whom you were made,
- And worship before Him in brightness arrayed.
- 2.
- Sing praise to the Lord! Praise Him on the earth
- In tuneful accord, you saints of new birth.
- Praise Him Who has brought you His grace from above;
- Praise Him Who has taught you to sing of His love.
- 3.
- Sing praise to the Lord! All things that give sound,
- Each jubilant chord, re-echo around.
- Loud organs, His glory tell forth in deep tone,
- And trumpets, the story of what He has done.
- 4.
- Sing praise to the Lord! Thanksgiving and song
- To Him be outpoured all ages along!
- For love in creation, for Heaven restored,
- For grace of salvation, sing praise to the Lord!
Lyrics: Henry W. Baker, 1875
