God's Praise Book

Author: Julia H. Johnston Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8098 Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: God has a praise book, a wonderful praise book Lyrics: 1 God has a praise book, a wonderful praise book, Full of thanksgivings and jubilant song; Hillside and valley and beautiful blossom, Echo His praises, and glad notes prolong. 2 Trees that are fruitful, each one in his season, Fertile green pastures, where still waters flow, Tell of His goodness, and show forth His glory, Ever proclaiming His mercy below. 3 Serve Him with gladness, all lands and all nations, Come with a song to His presence today, Enter these portals with fervent rejoicing; He is the Lord, who endureth alway. 4 Praise ye Jehovah, oh praise Him, ye people; Sing, for His merciful kindness is great; He is the Lord, and His truth is forever; Come to His courts, and in gratitude wait.
