1 Praise him! praise him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
Sing, O Earth, his wonderful love proclaim!
Hail him! hail him! highest archangels in glory;
strength and honor give to his holy name!
Like a shepherd Jesus will guard his children,
in his arms he carries them all day long:
[Refrain:]
Praise him! praise him!
tell of His excellent greatness;
praise him! praise him
ever in joyful song!
2 Praise him! praise him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
For our sins he suffered, and bled and died;

hail him! hail him! Jesus the Crucified.
Sound his praises! Jesus who bore our sorrows,
love unbounded, wonderful deep and strong: (Refrain)
3 Praise him! praise him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
Heavenly portals loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Savior, reigneth forever and ever;
crown him! crown him! Prophet and Priest and King!
Christ is coming! over the world victorious,
power and glory unto the Lord belong: (Refrain)
