Praise My Soul, the King of Heaven
Words: Henry Francis Lyle
THE HYMN
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven; to his feet thy tribute bring;
ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, evermore his praises sing:
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.
Praise him for his grace and favor, to our fathers in distress;
praise him still the same for ever, slow to chide and swift to bless:
Alleluia, alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness.
Angels, help us to adore him; ye behold him face to face;
sun and moon, bow down before him, dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.
Additional verse
Father-like, he tends and spares us; well our feeble frame he knows;
in his hand he gently bears us, rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Widely yet his mercy flows.
