O Praise the LORD

Henry Francis Lyte • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 149

Verse 1

O praise the LORD with heart and with voice; His mercies record and round Him rejoice. You children of God Your Savior adore, And learn to rely on His grace evermore.

Verse 2

Rest now on His arm, you sheep of His fold. What dread can harm with Him to uphold? His saints are His prize; their peace He will seek; And pour without measure His gifts on the meek.

Verse 3

Go on in His might, you men of the LORD; His Word be your light, His promise your sword. The King of Salvation your foes will subdue; Their humiliation brings glory to You.
