74. Praise the Lord

1 Praise the Lord! praise the Lord!
Happy children now in the temple sing,
Praise the Lord! praise the Lord!
Hosanna to the Lord our King.
O praise him for the flowers that grow,
O praise him for the stars that move;
Praise the Lord! here below,
And praise him in his courts above.

2 Love the Lord! love the Lord!
Happy children, give him your youth's bright days;
Love the Lord! love the Lord!
He ever loveth you, he says.
O love him, for he loves us so;
O love him for his wondrous love;
Love the Lord! here below,
And love him in his courts above.

3 Serve the Lord! serve the Lord!
Happy children, serve him with songs of joy;
Serve the Lord! serve the Lord!
And let his work your hands employ.
O serve him, whatsoe'er ye do;
O serve him wheresoe'er ye move;
Serve the Lord! here below,
And serve him in his courts above.
