I Will Praise You

I will praise you, O Lord, with my whole heart,
I will sing with lifted hands;
With the ransomed I will join in part,
Singing praise throughout the lands!

All the worlds leapt forth at your mighty word,
Stretching out in ordered days:
All the awe-struck hosts of heaven heard,
And poured forth their song of praise;

I will join them, Lord, who sing praise to you,
For your word is strong and sure:
All your precious promises are true,
None shall fail forevermore.

Though the skies be rent in twain, O Lord,
Though the sun lie paralyzed,
Your strong oath will not fail – every word
Is “Amen” and “Yea” in Christ!

In that steadfast oath my hope is placed;
I am found in Christ my king;
Reconciled in love and forever graced,
Now I lift my hands and sing.

Let us worship the Lord with our whole heart,
Come and sing with lifted hands;
All you faithful, join with us in part,
Singing praise throughout the lands!
