Sing prais­es to God for the gift of His love,
That guards us with ten­der­est care,
As onw­ard we march to that ci­ty above,
Its hea­ven­ly man­sions to share.

Refrain

O praise ye the Lord in song,
His bless­èd name adore,
And tell His mer­cies o’er,
As on­ward we march along,
Singing prais­es to God ev­er­more.

Sing prais­es to God for the bless­ing of pray­er,
That brings us so near to His throne;
For Christ in His beau­ty ap­pears to us there,
And gra­cious­ly wel­comes His own.

Refrain

Sing prais­es to God for His dear, bless­èd Son,
Who came as a ran­som from sin;
Thro’ Him we shall live when our jour­ney is done,
Thro’ Him we may all en­ter in.

Refrain

Sing prais­es to God for His mer­cy so free,
That reaches and sav­es ev­en me;
That pre­cious Re­deem­er once nailed to the tree,
The theme of our prais­es shall be.

Refrain
