my hymn to Him tonight


Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of Creation!  Oh my soul, praise Him for He is thy health and salvation. All you who hear now to His temple draw near. Praise Him with glad adoration!

Praise to the Lord, who over all things so wonderfully reigneth! Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth. Has thou not seen how all your longings have been granted in what He ordaineth?

Praise to the Lord, Who doth prosper thy work and defend thee. Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee. Ponder anew what the Almighty can do if with His love He befriend thee.

Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him! All that has life and breath come now with praises before Him. Let the Amen sound from His people again gladly for aye we adore Him!
