Tell Out, My Soul

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (1926-) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 60 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 First Line: Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord! Unnumbered blessings give my spirit voice; tender to me the promise of his word; in God my Saviour shall my heart rejoice. 2 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his name! Make known his might, the deeds his arm has done; his mercy sure, from age to age the same; his holy name -- the Lord, the mighty one. 3 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his might! Powers and dominions lay their glory by; proud hearts and stubborn wills are put to flight, the hungry fed, the humble lifted high. 4 Tell out, my soul, the glories of his word! Firm is his promise, and his mercy sure. Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord to children's children and forevermore!

Yea, I will laud Him until death. With songs and anthems I'll come before Him As long as He doth give me breath. From Him my life and all things came; Bless, O my soul, His holy name. Allelujah, allelujah! 2 Trust not in princes, they are but mortal; Earth-born they are and soon decay. Naught are their counsels at life's last portal, When the dark grave doth claim its prey. Since mortals can no help afford, Trust ye in Christ, our God and Lord. Allelujah, allelujah! 3 Blessed, yea, blessed is he forever Whose help is in the Lord most high, Whom from the saving faith naught can sever, And who in hope to Christ draws nigh. To all who trust in Him, our Lord, Counsel and aid He doth afford. Allelujah, allelujah! 4 God the Almighty, the great Creator, Ruler of sky and land and sea, All things ordained, and sooner or later They come to pass unfailingly. His rule is over rich and poor, His promise ever standeth sure. Allelujah, allelujah! 5 Penitent sinners, for mercy crying, Pardon and peace from Him obtain; Ever the wants of the poor supplying, Their faithful God He doth remain. He helps His children in distress, The widows and the fatherless. Allelujah, allelujah! 6 Praise, all you nations, the name so holy Of Him who doth such wondrous things! All that hath being, to praise Him solely, With happy heart its Amen sings! Children of God, with angel host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! Allelujah, allelujah!
