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.

I love the musical instruments added to the lyrics. It makes a whole lot of sense. Thanks to this page.

Please I will appreciate if the sound can be downloaded.

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

Praise indeed, that we have such a lovely and all-sufficient Person living in us, reconstituting us, and reigning over us that all sickness and weakness of our inward parts would be subjugated and driven out by His actual presence and name! I adore this One, this Jesus Christ, who has put to death the flesh and soul-life and who now in spirit is my life-supply, with all my parts that remain, for they have and are nothing without him. Praise the Lord!

Praise to THE LORD-Maranatha! No matter what is happening in the world and my life- the KING of Kings and LORD of Lords sustains and blesses me-join with me and all creation as we cry "HOLY, HOLY, HOLY is THE LORD-heaven and earth is filled with HIS glory !".

Hast thou not seen

How thy desires all have been

Granted in what He ordaineth?

I have seen the Almighty granting my desires in what he has ordained. In tears I told the Lord to lead me to a church that loves him, honors him and recognize him as their Lord, many months later, the Lord granted my desire. I can’t help but sing with so much joy in my heart❤️

Praise God! 🥳

It must be an act of grace that, though this song was composed so many centuries ago, yet it never fails to uplift and inspire each generation. My soul always soars when I sing this song, no matter what's happening in my life. I hope you'll keep it close to your heart also.

This hymn has been bubbling up in my soul quite often recently. This morning before returning to work as a teacher tomorrow I was stirred to look up the lyrics , sing it all and attempt to play it on piano in worship. What an anthem it is full of testimony to the Lord's faithful goodness!
