Praise to the Lord
The Almighty, the King of creation
Oh my soul, praise Him
For He is thy health and salvation
All ye who hear
Now to His temple draw near
Praise Him in glad adoration
Praise to the Lord
Who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth
Shelters thee under His wings
Yea, so gently sustaineth
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires ever have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?
Praise to the Lord
Who doth prosper thy work and defend thee
Surely His goodness
And mercy here daily attend thee
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriend thee
Praise to the Lord
Who, when tempests their warfare are waging
Who, when the elements
Madly around thee are raging
Biddeth them cease
Turneth their fury to peace
Whirlwinds and waters assuaging
Praise to the Lord
Who, when darkness of sin is abounding
Who, when the godless
Do triumph, all virtue confounding
Sheddeth His light
Chaseth the horrors of night
Saints with His mercy surrounding
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
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke your name into the night
Then through the darkness
Your loving kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Who could imagine so great a mercy?
What heart could fathom such boundless grace?
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
The king of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Saviour, I'm yours forever
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
(x2)
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the roaring lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
(x2)
Jesus, yours is the victory
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
(x2)
Jesus Christ, my living hope
He became sin, who knew no sin
That we might become His righteousness
He humbled himself and carried the cross
Love so amazing, love so amazing
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah, Lord of all
His body the bread, his blood the wine
Broken and poured out all for love
The whole earth trembled, and the veil was torn
Love so amazing, love so amazing, yeah
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah, Lord of all
All our hope is in You, all our hope is in You
All the glory to You, God, the light of the world
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah, Lord of all
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come, Thou Wisdom from on high
And order all things far and nigh
To us the path of knowledge show
Cause us in her ways to go
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come, Desire of nations, bind
All peoples in one heart and mind
Bid envy, strife, and quarrels cease
Fill the whole world with heaven's peace
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, Oh Israel
