Praise the Lord! You Heavens Adore Him
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A praise hymn drawn from Psalm 148, calling all creation—heavens, angels, sun, moon, and stars—to adore God. The first stanza originated anonymously in a 1796 London hymn collection; Edward Osler contributed additional stanzas in 1836.
Verse 1
Praise the Lord: you heavens, adore Him;
Praise Him, angels in the height;
Sun and moon, rejoice before Him;
praise Him, all you stars of light.
Praise the Lord, for He has spoken;
worlds His mighty voice obeyed.
Laws which never shall be broken
for their guidance He has made.
Verse 2
Praise the Lord! for He is glorious;
never shall His promise fail.
God has made His saints victorious;
sin and death shall not prevail.
Praise the God of our salvation!
hosts on high, His power proclaim.
Heaven and earth and all creation,
laud and magnify His Name.
Verse 3
Worship, honor, glory, blessing,
Lord, we offer as our gift.
Young and old, Your praise expressing,
Our glad songs to You we lift.
All the saints in heaven adore You;
we would join their glad acclaim;
As Your angels serve before You,
so on earth we praise Your name.
