173. Praise the Lord! ye heavens, adore Him

1 Praise the Lord! ye heavens, adore Him!
Praise Him, angels in the height;
Sun and moon, rejoice before Him;
Praise Him, all ye stars of light.

Chorus:
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Praise the Lord and magnify His name!
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Praise the Lord! His mighty power proclaim.

2 Praise the Lord, for He hath spoken;
Worlds His mighty voice obeyed;
Law which never shall be broken,
For their guidance He hath made. [Chorus]

3 Praise the Lord, for He is glorious;
Never shall His promise fail;
God has made His saints victorious:
Sin and death shall not prevail. [Chorus]

4 Praise the God of our salvation;
Hosts on high His power proclaim;
Heaven and earth and all creation,
Laud and magnify His name. [Chorus]
