In Hymns of Praise

Brightly

1. In hymns of praise your voices raise
To him who reigns on high,
Whose counsels keep the mighty deep,
Who ruleth earth and sky.

[Chorus]

Exalt his name in loud acclaim;

His mighty pow’r adore!

And humbly bow before him now,

Our King forevermore.

2. Beneath his hand, at his command,
The shining planets move;
To all below they daily show
His wisdom and his love.

[Chorus]

Exalt his name in loud acclaim;

His mighty pow’r adore!

And humbly bow before him now,

Our King forevermore.

3. The little flow’r that lasts an hour,
The sparrow in its fall,
They, too, shall share his tender care;
He made and loves them all.

[Chorus]

Exalt his name in loud acclaim;

His mighty pow’r adore!

And humbly bow before him now,

Our King forevermore.

4. Then sing again in lofty strain
To him who dwells on high;
To prayers you raise, and songs of praise,
He sweetly will reply.

[Chorus]

Exalt his name in loud acclaim;

His mighty pow’r adore!

And humbly bow before him now,

Our King forevermore.
