Texts

Come, All Ye People, Bless Our God

Come, all ye people, bless our God
And tell His glorious praise abroad,
Who holds our souls in life;
Who never lets our feet be moved
And, though our faith He oft has proved,
Upholds us in the strife.

Notes

ADOWA was composed by Charles H. Gabriel (PHH 24), the noted gospel songwriter, during the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver evangelistic crusades of the 1910s, and was published with this text in the 1912 Psalter. Sing the tune in two very long phrases.
