"PRAISE TO THE LORD"

PRAISE TO THE LORD

"Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of Creation;

O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation;

Join the great throng,

Psaltery, organ and song,

Sounding in glad adoration.

Praise to the Lord;

Over all things He gloriously reigneth.

Borne as on eagle-wings, safely His saints He sustaineth.

Hast thou not seen

How all thou needest hath been

Granted in what He ordaineth?

Praise to the Lord,

Who doth prosper thy way and defend thee;
Surely His goodness and mercy shall ever attend thee;

Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do,

Who with His love doth befriend thee.

Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore Him!
All that hath breath join in Abraham's seed to adore Him!
Let the "Amen"
Sum all our praises again
Now as we worship before Him...Amen"

Joachim Neander 1680
(based on Psalm 103 and 150)

OH  THE JOY OF THE PRAISES AND ADORATION OF SAINTS IN CHRIST THROUGHOUT THE CENTURIES!  I pray you know the music to this wondrous old hymn from 1680 and it will ring within your heart with the Holy Spirit singing along to lift you eyes to Almighty God in our "modern times"...
KEEP YOUR  FOCUS UPON HIS FACE AND HIS LOVE FOR YOU. WALK IN JOYFUL AND COURAGEOUS FAITH!   JESUS IS LORD AND GREATER THAN EVERYTHING!
