Hymns of the Lutheran Church

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.
