Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Name of the Lord; praise Him, O ye servants of the Lord.
Psalm 135:1
Words: Henry W. Baker, in Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861.
Music: Ein feste Burg Martin Luther, 1529 (🔊 pdf nwc).
Rejoice today with one accord,
Sing out with exultation;
Rejoice and praise our mighty Lord,
Whose arm hath brought salvation;
His works of love proclaim
The greatness of His name;
For He is God alone
Who hath His mercy shown;
Let all His saints adore Him!
When in distress to Him we cried,
He heard our sad complaining;
O trust in Him, whate’er betide,
His love is all sustaining;
Triumphant songs of praise
To Him our hearts shall raise;
Now every voice shall say,
O praise our God alway
;
Let all His saints adore Him!
Rejoice today with one accord,
Sing out with exultation;
Rejoice and praise our mighty Lord,
Whose arm hath brought salvation;
His works of love proclaim
The greatness of His name;
For He is God alone
Who hath His mercy shown;
Let all His saints adore Him!
