165. Praise Ye Jehovah!

1 Praise ye Jehovah, praise the Lord most holy,
Who cheers the contrite, girds with strength the weak;
Praise him who will with glory crown the lowly,
And with salvation beautify the meek.

Refrain:
Praise him for his constant care,
His ever-present love;
Praise him, for he hears our prayer,
And answers from above.
Praise God the Father,
Praise the ever blessed Son,
Praise God the Spirit,
Praise the Three in One.

2 Praise ye the Lord for all his loving kindness,
And all the tender mercies he hath shown:
Praise him who pardons all our sin and blindness,
And calls us sons, and takes us for his own. [Refrain]

3 Praise ye Jehovah! source of every blessing,
Before his gifts earth's richest gifts are dim:
Resting in him, his peace and love possessing,
All things are ours, for we have all in him. [Refrain]

4 Praise ye the Lord! God the Lord, who gave us,
With full and perfect love, his only Son;
Praise ye the Son, who died himself to save us,
Praise ye the Spirit! praise the Three in One. [Refrain]
