By A Collection of Hymns

      7s & 6s. Psalm cl.
      1 PRAISE the Lord! who reigns above,
      And keeps his court below,
      Praise the holy God of love,
      And all his greatness show;
      Praise him for his noble deeds,
      Praise him for his matchless power:
      Him from whom all good proceeds
      Let earth and heaven adore.

      2 Publish, spread to all around
      The great Jehovah's name,
      Let the trumpet's martial sound
      The Lord of hosts proclaim:
      Praise him in the sacred dance,
      Harmony's full concert raise,
      Let the virgin choir advance,
      And move but to his praise.

      3 Celebrate the eternal God
      With harp and psaltery,
      Timbrels soft and cymbals loud
      In his high praise agree:
      Praise him every tuneful string;
      All the reach of heavenly art,
      All the powers of music bring,
      The music of the heart.

      4 Him, in whom they move and live,
      Let every creature sing,
      Glory to their Maker give,
      And homage to their King:
      Hallowed be his name beneath,
      As in heaven on earth adored;
      Praise the Lord in every breath!
      Let all things praise the Lord!
