1  Praise, praise ye the name of our Savior and God;

    Declare, oh, declare ye His glories abroad;

    Proclaim ye His mercy, from nation to nation,

    Till the uttermost islands have heard His salvation.

 2  Praise, praise ye the Lamb, who for sinners was slain;

    Who went down to the grave, and ascended again;

    And who soon shall return, when these dark days are o'er,

    To set up His kingdom, in glory and power.

 3  Then the heav'ns and the earth. and the sea shall rejoice;

    The field and the forest shall lift their glad voice;

    The sands of the desert shall flourish in green,

    And Lebanon's glory be shed o'er the scene.

 4  Her bridal attire, and her festal array,

    All nature shall see on that glorious day;

    For her King cometh down with His people to reign,

    And His presence shall bless her with glory in men.
