Praise - Halal

Tune: Sandys

('Teach me, my God and King')

********

'Halal', to be clear, shine

And worship the divine

To boast, to show, to rave it be

And too celebrate, see

 

To clamour foolishly

But still respectful be

To worship, praise our Lord and King

To Him let each voice sing

 

Psalm 113 v.1-3

Praise you the LORD, Him praise

You servants a song raise

Praise His name, it be blessed for e'er

That honour you may share

 

From this time and henceforth

From east, west, south, and north

The LORD's name blessed for evermore

Upon each earthly shore

 

From rising of the sun

To going down, bar none

From every place His name be praised

To Him thanksgivings raised

 

Psalm 150 v.1

Praise you the LORD, God He

Is, and none else can be

Praise Him now in His sanctuary

Expressions bold and free

 

Praise Him, he dwells on high

His power shows in the sky

His mighty firmament it is

'Tis His creation this

 

Psalm 149 v.3

Let them praise in the dance

It shall His name enhance

Sing praise to Him, employ timbrel

And harp, instruments all
