Praise to the Lord, the Almighty

1
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,
  the King of creation!
O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy
  health and salvation!
    All ye who hear,
Now to His temple draw near;
Sing now in glad adoration!
2
Praise to the Lord, who o'er all
  things so wondrously reigneth,
Who, as on wings of an eagle,
  uplifteth, sustaineth.
    Hast thou not seen
How thy desires all have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?
3
Praise to the Lord, who hath fearfully,
  wondrously, made thee!
Health hath vouchsafed and, when
  heedlessly falling, hath stayed thee.
    What need or grief
Ever hath failed of relief?
Wings of His mercy did shade thee.
4
Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper
  thy work and defend thee,
Who from the heavens the streams of
  His mercy doth send thee.
    Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do,
Who with His love doth befriend thee.
5
Praise to the Lord! Oh, let all that
  is in me adore Him!
All that hath life and breath, come
  now with praises before Him!
    Let the Amen
Sound from His people again;
Gladly for aye we adore Him.

Sang this and many other beautiful hymns in our school, Bishop Cotton School, Bangalore, morning assembly, 3rd Std, 1961, and later on in the Chapel in the Boys school, this is one of my favorite hymns. Brings back a lot of memories and also this is part of the foundation of our faith in Jesus and God

I too, work up this morning with this song in my spirit. I "thank God for His grace and mercy towards the children of men."

This is one of the many favourite hymns I learnt in Secondary School. It is truly a blessing to sing this song during my morning worship. "Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things so wondrously reigneth.." Thank You God for sending Your only begotten Son to clean me up and draw me back to You. "Praise O Praise my God and King. Hallelujah!

What shall I render unto the Lord for his goodness and loving kindness? A suitable hymn to praise God Almighty for all he has done for me and my family. The 5th stanza is my favourite!

Keep waking up, with old hymns coming to mind. These hymns would have been sung in my church when I was a child ! Amazed that they are what the Spirit of the Lord is bringing to my remembrance.

I woke up this morning with this hymn ringing in my heart. I just couldn't hold myself, I reached out for my phone and got out the lyrics and began to sing, worshipping the Lord along with my kids. I could feel this refreshing presence of God all over me. Thank You Jesus for the privilege to worship You today.

What a joy to sing it again. The very first hymn I learned in grade school. Blessed be his name, our Lord Jesus. In all the years since has never abandoned me even in my rebellion. Great is his faithfulness..
