Praise the Lord Through Every Nation
VERSE 1
Our fathers led across the sea,
Praise the Lord through every nation;
His holy arm hath wrought salvation;
Exalt Him on His Father’s throne;
Praise your King, ye Christian legions,
Who now prepares in heav’nly regions
Unfailing mansions for His own;
With voice and minstrelsy
Extol His majesty:Alleluia!
His praise shall sound all nature round,
Where’er the race of man is found.
VERSE 2
God with God dominion sharing,
And Man with man our image bearing,
Gentile and Jew to Him are given;
Praise your Savior, ransomed sinners,
Of life, through Him, immortal winners;
No longer heirs of earth, but Heaven.
O beatific light
To view His face in light;Alleluia!
And, while we see, transformed to be
From bliss to bliss eternally.
VERSE 3
Jesus, Lord, our Captain glorious,
O’er sin, and death, and hell victorious,
Wisdom and might to Thee belong:
We confess, proclaim, adore Thee,
We bow the knee, we fall before Thee,
Thy love henceforth shall be our song:
The cross meanwhile we bear,
The crown ere long to wear.Alleluia!
Thy reign extend world without end,
Let praise from all to Thee ascend.
