Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above

Sign Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Words by Johann Schutz.
Music from the Bohemian Brethren's Kirchengesange

     A                 D      A
Sing praise to God who reigns above,
    D             E  A
The God of all creation,
    A                 D      A
The God of pow'r, the God of love,
    D             E A
The God of our salvation;
F#m  C#m             B       E
With healing balm my soul He fills,
    A               B      E
And ev'ry faithless murmur stills:
   D                  E  A
To God all praise and glory!


What God's almighty pow'r hath made
His gracious mercy keepeth,
By morning glow or evening shade
HIs watchful eye ne'er sleepeth;
Within the kingdom of His might,
Lo!  All is just and all is right:
To God all praise and glory!

The Lord is never far away,
But, thru all grief distressing,
An ever-present help and stay,
Our peace and joy and blessing;
As with a mother's tender hand
He leads His own, His chosen band:
To God all praise and glory!

Thus all my toilsome way along
I sing aloud Thy praises,
That men may hear the grateful song
My voice unwearied raises;
Be joyful in the Lord, my heart!
Both soul and body bear your part:
To God all praise and glory!
