And preserveth the souls of all who will trust Him;
Praise ye the Lord! [Refrain]

And delivers His saints from all their temptations;
Praise ye the Lord! [Refrain]
4 Oh, praise the Lord, all ye nations!
For His love unfailing;
He doth tenderly lead in the path of peace,
And His name is a refuge from the oppressor;
