God’s Praise Book

God has a praise book

a won­der­ful praise book

Full of thanks­giv­ings and ju­bi­lant song;

Hillside and val­ley and beau­ti­ful blos­som

Echo His prais­es

and glad notes pro­long.

Trees that are fruit­ful

each one in his sea­son

Fertile green pas­tures

where still wa­ters flow

Tell of His good­ness

and show forth His glo­ry

Ever pro­claim­ing His mer­cy be­low.

Serve Him with glad­ness

all lands and all na­tions

Come with a song to His pre­sence to­day

Enter these por­tals with fer­vent re­joic­ing;

He is the Lord

who en­dur­eth al­way.

Praise ye Je­ho­vah

oh praise Him

ye peo­ple;

Sing

for His mer­ci­ful kind­ness is great;

He is the Lord

and His truth is for­ev­er;

Come to His courts

and in gra­ti­tude wait.
