We Praise You, O God, Our Redeemer


We praise You, O God, our Redeemer, Creator,
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;
We lay it before You, we kneel and adore You,
We bless Your holy Name, glad praises we sing.

We worship You, God of our fathers, we bless You;
Through life’s storm and tempest our guide You have been;
When perils overtake us, victori'us You have made us,
And with Your help, O Lord, our battles we win.

With voices united our praises we offer,
To You, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Your strong arm does guide us, our God is beside us,
To You, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.

Cory later added this stanza for use at Christmas:

Your love You did show us, Your only Son sending,
Who came as a Babe and Whose bed was a stall,
His blest life He gave us and then died to save us;
We praise You, O Lord, for Your gift to us all.
