PRAISE TO THE LORD, THE ALMIGHTY
a German hymn published in 1680
(from Psalm 103, Psalm 150)
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,
the King of creation
O my soul, praise Him,
for He is thy health and salvation
All you who hear,
now to His temple draw near
Praise Him in glad adoration
Praise to the Lord,
Who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth
Shelters thee under His wings,
yea, so gently sustaineth
Hast thou not seen
how thy desires have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?
Praise to the Lord,
who doth prosper they work and defend thee:
Surely His goodness and mercy
here daily attend thee;
Ponder anew
what the Almighty can do,
If with His love He befriend thee.
Praise to the Lord,
O let all that is in me adore Him
All that hath life and breath,
come now with praises before Him
Let the Amen
sound from His people again
Gladly forever adore Him

HOW GREAT THOU ART
by Carl Boberg (1885)
O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on a Cross, my burdens gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS
by Thomas Chisolm (1923)
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
there is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions,
they fail not;
as Thou hast been, Thou forever wilt be.
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
all I have needed Thy hand hath provided:
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter, and springtime
and harvest;
sun, moon, and stars in their courses above
join with all nature in manifold witness
to Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
all I have needed Thy hand hath provided:
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer
and to guide;
strength for today and bright hope
for tomorrow:
blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
all I have needed Thy hand hath provided:
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
