Praise God! 'tis good and pleasant
And comely to adore
Jehovah builds up Salem
Her outcasts doth restore
He heals the broken hearted
And makes the wounded live
The starry hosts He numbers
And names to all doth give
Our Lord is great and mighty
His wisdom none can know
The Lord doth raise the lowly
And sinners overthrow
O thank and praise Jehovah!
Praise Him on harp with mirth
The heaven with clouds Who covers
And sends His rain on earth
The words that He has spoken
To Jacob He makes known
His judgements and His statutes
To Israel has shown
Not so to any nation
Did He His grace accord
For they've not known His judgements
O do ye praise the Lord
