Sing Praises!

Verse 1

Thus saith the Lord that created thee, And called thee by thy name; Fear not; for I have begotten thee, And borne thy sin and shame. Be not afraid: I have chosen thee; My oath I will not break; I help, and strengthen, and comfort thee, And save, for My own sake.

Verse 2

Thou art my servant, O Israel, I paid the price divine; I never, never forget thee, then, For Thou art Mine, all Mine. Thy great transgressions are blotted out, And as a cloud, thy sin; Return! Return! O return to Me, And life eternal win.

Verse 3

Sing, O ye heavens, and shout, O earth! Break forth, and shout and sing! Ye mountains, forest, and ev’ry tree Sing praises to your King! He hath redeemed thee, O Israel! He suffer’d, bled and died; He rose, and opened a door of hope; Himself He glorified!

Chorus

Sing, O ye heav’ns, and shout, O earth! Break forth and shout and sing! Ye mountains, forest, and ev’ry tree Sing praises to your King.
