While saints and angels cry aloud,
Before the throne on high,
My raptured soul is on the wing,
And all its powers reply.
O praise the Lord with heart and voice,
The God in whom we trust,
The everlasting King of kings,
The only wise and just.
He speaks, and lo, the gathering storm
Obeys his sovereign will;
The angry sea his mandate hears,
And every wave is still.
O praise the Lord with heart and voice,
The God in whom we trust,
The everlasting King of kings,
The only wise and just.
His tender mercy deigns to hear
The weakest one that calls;
And not a sparrow to the ground
Without his notice falls.
O praise the Lord with heart and voice,
The God in whom we trust,
The everlasting King of kings,
The only wise and just.
Oh, love that cancels every sin,
Oh, love, the cross that bore;
Not heaven above its height can reach,
Nor yet its depth explore.
O praise the Lord with heart and voice,
The God in whom we trust,
The everlasting King of kings,
The only wise and just.
