Come Sing Praises to the Lord Above
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
COME SING PRAISES TO THE LORD
ABOVE,
ROCK OF OUR SALVATION, GOD OF LOVE;
TO HIS PRESENCE WITH THANKSGIVING
MOVE
FOR THE LORD OUR GOD IS KING!
####CHORUS:
HE IS THE KING ABOVE THE MOUNTAINS
HIGH,
THE SEA IS HIS, THE LAND AND SKY
SUBTERRANEAN DEPTHS THAT MAN DEFY
ARE IN THE HOLLOW OF HIS HAND.
HERE WE WORSHIP HIM AND BOW THE
KNEE
FOR THE SHEPARD OF THE FLOCK IS HE
MINDFUL OF HIS GENEROSITY
SING THE PRAISES OF GOD THE KING.
####
HEAR A SALUTARY STORY NOW
YOU WITH STUBBORN HEARTS WHO WILL
NOT BOW
MIND HIS PEOPLE THAT REBELLED, AND
HOW
HE SHOWED THEM HE WAS THEIR KING.
####
FORTY YEARS HE KEPT THEIR PRIZE
AWAY
MADE THEM WANDER TILL THEY WALKED
HIS WAY
EXILED ALL OF THEM UNTIL THE DAY
THEY SHOULD HONOUR HIM AS KING.
