Rejoice in the Lord ‎#614

614. Praise Ye the Lord, Ye Servants of the Lord

1 Praise ye the Lord, ye servants of the Lord;
praise ye his name, his lordly honor sing:
thee we adore, to thee glad homage bring;
thee we acknowledge, God to be adored
for thy great glory, sov'reign Lord and King.

2 Father of Christ--of him whose work was done
when by his death he took our sins away--
to thee belongeth worship day by day;
yea, holy Father, everlasting Son,
and Holy Spirit, praise be thine for aye.
