EXHORTATION TO PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING




Stand up and bless the Lord,
Ye people of His choice;
Stand up and bless the Lord Your God,
With heart and soul and voice.


Though high above all praise,
Above all blessing high,
Who would not fear His holy name?
And laud and magnify?


O for the living flame
From His own altar brought,
O touch our lips, our minds inspire,
And wing to heaven our thought!


There, with benign regard,
Our hymns He deigns to hear;
Though unrevealed to mortal sense,
Our spirits feel Him near.


God is our strength and song,
And His salvation ours;
Then be His love in Christ proclaimed
With all our ransomed powers.


Stand up and bless the Lord,
The Lord your God adore;
Stand up and bless His glorious name
Henceforth for evermore.


---Alternative verses---


There, with benign regard,
Our hymns He deigns to hear;
Though unrevealed to mortal sense,
The spirits feel Him near.


Stand up and bless the Lord,
Ye children of His choice;
Stand up and bless the Lord Your God,
With heart and soul and voice.
