Sing to the LORD a joyful song;
Lift up your hearts, your voices raise;
To us His gracious gift belong,
To Him our songs of love and praise.
For life and love, for rest and food,
For daily help and nightly care,
Sing to the Lord, for He is good,
And praise His name, for it is fair.
For strength to those
who on Him wait,
His truth to prove, His will to do,
Praise ye our God, for He is great;
Trust in His Name, for it is true.
For joys untold, that from above
Cheer those who
love His sweet employ,
Sing to our God, for He is love;
Exalt His Name, for it is joy.
For life below, with all its bliss,
And for that life, more pure and high-
That inner life, which over this
Shall ever shine and never die-
Sing to the Lord of heaven and earth,
Whom angels serve and saints adore,
To the Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
To whom be praise for evermore.
---Alternative verses---
For he is Lord of heaven and earth,
Whom angels serve and saints adore,
The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
To whom be praise for evermore.
