[Brief Intro]
[Verse 1]
Praise ye the Lord; 'tis good to raise
Our hearts and voices in His praise:
His nature and His works invite
To make this duty our delight.
[Chorus]
Great is our Lord, and great His might;
And all His glories infinite:
He crowns the meek, rewards the just,
And treads the wicked to the dust.
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 2]
The Lord builds up Jerusalem,
And gathers nations to His name:
His mercy melts the stubborn soul,
And makes the broken spirit whole.
[Verse 3]
He formed the stars, those heavenly names;
He counts their numbers, calls their names:
His wisdom's vast, and knows no bound,
A depth where all our thoughts are drowned.
[Chorus]
Great is our Lord, and great His might;
And all His glories infinite:
He crowns the meek, rewards the just,
And treads the wicked to the dust.
