GOD THE FATHER: Creation, Providence, Redemption 1 (679) 8.7.4. Praise, my soul, the King of heaven; To His feet thy tribute bring; Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Who like thee His praise shall sing? Praise Him! praise Him! Praise the everlasting King! 2 Praise Him for His grace and favour To our fathers in distress; Praise Him, still the same as ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless: Praise Him! praise Him! Glorious in His faithfulness! 3 Father-like He tends and spares us, Well our feeble frame He knows; In His hands He gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes: Praise Him! praise Him! Widely as His mercy flows. 4 Angels, help us to adore Him, Ye behold Him face to face! Sun and moon, bow down before Him! Dwellers all in time and space, Praise Him! praise Him! Praise with us the God of grace! 2 (723) 8.7.3.7.6.6.5.3.2. A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing: Our Helper He, amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing.

Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He! Lord Sabaoth is His name, From age to age the same: And He must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us: We will not fear; for God hath willed His truth to triumph hrough us. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still, His Kingdom is for ever. About the Pu Read more
