Verse 1
Praise, praise ye the Name of Jehovah, our God;
Declare, O declare ye His glories abroad;
Proclaim ye His mercy from nation to nation
Till the uttermost islands have heard His salvation.
Chorus
For His love floweth on free and full as a river,
And His mercy endureth for ever and ever.
Verse 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.
Chorus
For His love floweth on free and full as a river,
And His mercy endureth for ever and ever.
Verse 3
Then the heavens, the earth, and the sea shall rejoice;
The fields and the forests shall lift the glad voice;
The sands of the desert shall flourish in green,
And Lebanon's glory be shed o'er the scene.
Chorus
For His love floweth on free and full as a river,
And His mercy endureth for ever and ever.
Verse 4
Her bridal attire and her festal array
All Nature shall wear on that glorious day;
For her King cometh down with His people to reign,
And His presence shall bless her with Eden again.
Chorus
For His love floweth on free and full as a river,
And His mercy endureth for ever and ever.
