232. Praise the Lord, you heavens, adore Him

1 Praise the Lord, you heavens, adore Him,
praise Him, angels in the height!
Sun and moon, rejoice before Him;
praise Him, all you stars and light!

2 Praise the Lord, for He has spoken;
worlds His mighty voice obeyed:
laws, which never shall be broken,
for their guidance He has made.

3 Praise the Lord, for He is glorious!
Never shall His promise fail.
God has made His saints victorious,
sin and death shall not prevail.

4 Praise the God of our salvation!
Hosts on high, His power proclaim;
heaven and earth and all creation,
praise and glorify His name!
