258. Now Let All Loudly

1 Now let all loudly
Sing praise to God the Lord;
Christendom, proudly
Laud him with one accord.
Gently he bids you come before him.
Haste, then, O Israel, now adore him!
Haste, then, O Israel, now adore him!

2 The Lord is reigning
Over the universe,
The world sustaining.
All things his praise rehearse.
The angel host his glory telling,
Psalter and harp are the anthem swelling.
Psalter and harp are the anthem swelling.

3 Come, heathen races,
Cast off all grief and cares,
For pleasant places
Your Savior now prepares,
Where his blest Word abroad is sounded,
Pardon for sinners and grace unbounded;
Pardon for sinners and grace unbounded.

4 Richly he feeds us
Always and ev'rywhere.
Gently he leads us
With a true father's care.
The late and early rains he sends us.
Daily his blessing, his love, attends us.
Daily his blessing, his love, attends us.

5 Sing we his praises
Who is thus merciful.
Christendom raises
Songs to his glorious rule.
Rejoice! No foe shall now alarm us.
He will protect us, and who can harm us?
He will protect us, and who can harm us?
