Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above

Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The Ruler of all nations;
With healing balm our lives He fills,
And every faithless murmur stills:
To God all praise and glory.

Your sacred host, O King of kings,
Your praise for ever telling,
In earth and sky all living things
Beneath thy shadow dwelling,
Adore the wisdom which did span
The power which formed creation's plan:
To God all praise and glory.

What God's almighty power hath made,
His gracious mercy keepeth;
By morning glow or evening shade
His watchful eye ne'er sleepeth.
Within the kingdom of his might,
Lo! all is just and all is right:
To God all praise and glory.

As all our gladsome days along
We sing aloud Your praises,
That men may hear the grateful song
Our voice unwearied raises:
Be joyful in the Lord, for hark!
Both soul and body bear their part!
To God all praise and glory.

All those who name Christ's holy name
Give God all praise and glory;
Let all who know His power proclaim
Aloud the wondrous story!
Cast each false idol from its throne,
The Lord is God, and He alone:
To God all praise and glory.
