('Hail the day that sees Him rise')
Psalm 103 v.19-22
********
The LORD has prepared His throne - Alleluia!
In the heavens, all His own - Alleluia!
His kingdom rules over all - Alleluia!
Sing praise, on Him humbly call - Alleluia!
Bless the LORD, you His angels - Alleluia!
Each you in His presence dwells - Alleluia!
You excel in strength, and you - Alleluia!
Always His commandments do - Alleluia!
You the voice of His word hear - Alleluia!
Ever know Him to you near - Alleluia!
Bless the LORD, all you His hosts - Alleluia!
Heaven, earth, to farthest coasts - Alleluia!
Bless the LORD, you ministers - Alleluia!
You His servants, He confers - Alleluia!
Grace upon you, and you do - Alleluia!
His pleasure, His mercies view - Alleluia!
Bless the LORD, all His works in - Alleluia!
Heaven, earth, sky, all therein - Alleluia!
Bless the LORD, O my soul too - Alleluia!
There place in worship for you - Alleluia!

20 by 4 syllables - that's a costly lot in Alleluia alone - Miss Berles will be posting an invoice.
Phew, yes! Did I waste them? Was I greedy, having them after every line?! And do you know Ally Lou Ya?
I know Wheresa-Loo Ya
Ah good. It might be Halle-Loo Ya too, another sister?
Don't forget Needa Loo
There's as many Loos family as Berles family.
Good one Orchi.
Thanks Gold.
