9 Praise, my soul, the King of heaven
1 Praise, my soul, the King of heaven,
To His feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Evermore His praises sing!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Praise the everlasting King.
2 Praise Him for His grace and favor
To our fathers in distress;
Praise Him, still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Glorious in His faithfulness.
3 Father-like, He tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame He knows;
In His hands He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Widely as His mercy goes.
4 Angels in the height, adore Him;
Ye behold Him face to face;
Saints triumphant, bow before Him:
Gathered in from every race.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Praise with us the God of grace.
