Hallelujah, praise Jehovah, from the heavens praise His Name;

And His glory is exalted, and His glory is exalted,
And His glory is exalted far above the earth and sky.Let them praises give Jehovah, they were made at His command;
Them forever He established, His decree shall ever stand,

Creeping things and beasts and cattle, birds that in the heavens fly,
Kings of earth, and all you people, princes great, earth’s judges all;
Praise His Name, young men and maidens, agèd men, and children small.Refrain

[Psa 148:1] Praise To The Holiest In The Height
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all His words most wonderful,
Most sure in all His ways.O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
A second Adam to the fight
And to the rescue came.O wisest love! that flesh and blood,
Which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against the foe,
Should strive and should prevail.And that a higher gift than grace
Should flesh and blood refine,
God’s Presence and His very Self,
And Essence all divine.O generous love! that He, who smote,
In Man for man the foe,
The double agony in Man
For man should undergo.And in the garden secretly,
And on the Cross on high,
Should teach His brethren, and inspire
To suffer and to die.Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all His words most wonderful,
Most sure in all His ways.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 148:1] Praise Ye, Praise Ye The Lord
Praise ye, praise ye the Lord in yonder heav’nly height;
Ye angels, all His hosts, in joyful praise unite;
O sun and moon, declare His might,
Show forth His praise, ye stars of light.Praise Him, ye highest heav’ns, praise Him, ye clouds that roll,
Created by His pow’r and under His control,
Ye heav’ns that stand eternally,
Established by His firm decree.Ye creatures in the sea and creatures on the earth,
Your mighty Maker praise and tell His matchless worth;
Praise Him, ye stormy winds that blow,
Ye fire and hail, ye rain and snow.Ye hills and mountains, praise, each tree and beast and bird;
Ye kings and realms of earth, now let your praise be heard;
By high and low, by young and old
Be all His praise and glory told.By all let God be praised, for He alone is great;
Above the earth and Heav’n He reigns in glorious state;
Praise Him ye saints, who know His grace
And ever dwell before His face.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 148:1] Praise Ye The Lord! Immortal Choir
Praise ye the Lord! immortal choir,
In heavenly heights above,
With harp and voice and souls of fire,
Burning with perfect love.Shine to His glory, worlds of light!
Ye million suns of space,
Fair moons and glittering stars of night,
Running your mystic race!Ye gorgeous clouds, that deck the sky
With crystal, crimson, gold,
And rainbow arches raised on high,
The Light of light unfold!Lift to Jehovah, wintry main,
Your grand white hands in prayer;
Still summer seas, in dulcet strain,
Murmur hosannas there!Do homage, breezy ocean floor,
With many-twinkling sign;
Majestic calms, be hushed before
The Holiness Divine.Storm, lightning, thunder, hail and snow,
Wild winds that keep His word,
With the old mountains far below,
Unite to bless the Lord.His Name, ye forests, wave along;
Whisper it, every flower;
Birds, beasts, and insects, swell the song
That tells His love and power.Around the wide world let it roll,
Whilst man shall lead it on;
Join every ransomed human soul,
In glorious unison!Come, agèd man! come, little child!
Youth, maiden, peasant, king,
To God in Jesus reconciled
Your hallelujahs bring!The all creating Deity,
Maker of earth and Heav’n!
The great redeeming Majesty,
To Him the praise be giv’n!Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 148:1] Praise Ye The Lord! On Every Height
Praise ye the Lord! on every height
Songs to His glory raise;
Ye angel hosts, ye stars of night,
Join in immortal praise.O heaven of heavens, let praise far swelling
From all thine orbs be sent:
Join in the strains, ye waters, dwelling
Above the firmament.For His the Word which gave you birth,
And majesty and might;
Praise to the Highest from the earth,
And let the deeps unite.O fire and vapor, hail and snow,
Ye servants of His will;
O stormy winds, that only blow
His mandates to fulfill.Mountains and rocks, to Heaven that rise;
Fair cedars of the wood;
Creatures of life that wing the skies,
Or track the plains for food;Judges of nations; kings whose hand
Waves the proud scepter high;
O youths and virgins of the land,
O age and infancy.Praise ye His Name, to Whom alone
All homage should be given,
Whose glory from the eternal throne
Spreads wide o’er earth and Heaven.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 148:2] Meet And Right It Is To Sing
Meet and right it is to sing
In every time and place,
Glory to our heavenly King,
The God of truth and grace:
Join we then with sweet accord,
All in one thanksgiving join,
Holy, holy, holy Lord
Eternal praise be Thine!Thee, the first-born sons of light,
In choral symphonies,
Praise by day, day without night,
And never, never cease:
Angels and archangels all
Praise the mystic Three in One;
Sing, and stop, and gaze, and fall
O’erwhelmed before Thy throne.Vying with that happy choir,
Who chant Thy praise above,
We on eagles’ wings aspire,
The wings of faith and love;
Thee they sing with glory crowned,
We extol the slaughtered Lamb;
Lower if our voices sound,
Our subject is the same.Father God, Thy love we praise,
Which gave Thy Son to die;
Jesus, full of truth and grace,
Alike we glorify;
Spirit, Comforter divine,
Praise by all to Thee be given;
Till we in full chorus join,
And earth is turned to Heaven.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 148:2] O Thou To Whom Archangels Raise
O Thou to Whom archangels raise
A ceaseless song of perfect praise,
Yet tremble as they sing;
To us incline Thy gracious ear,
And while, with reverence, we draw near,
Accept the praise we bring.In vain with all the angel choir,
The ransomed hosts of Heav’n aspire
Thy glory to proclaim;
How then shall we approach Thy throne?
How make Thy countless mercies known,
Or sing Thine awful Name?Thy love alone our stay hath been,
In every dark and changing scene
Throughout the circling year;
Preserved by Thine almighty hand,
Again before Thy face we stand,
And sing Thy goodness here.Father, for Jesus’ sake receive
The praise which now we gladly give,
Though with a stammering tongue;
Grant us at length to see Thy face,
And join with all the ransomed race
In Heav’n’s eternal song.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Psa 148:5] O Source Divine, And Life Of All
O Source divine, and life of all,
The Fount of being’s wondrous sea!
Thy depth would every heart appall
That saw not love supreme in Thee.We shrink before Thy vast abyss,
Where worlds on worlds eternal brood:
We know Thee truly but in this—
That Thou bestowest all our good.And so, ’mid boundless time and space,
O grant us still in Thee to dwell,
And through the ceaseless web to trace
Thy presence working all things well.Nor let Thou life’s delightful play
Thy truth’s transcendent vision hide;
Nor strength and gladness lead astray
From Thee, our nature’s only Guide.Bestow on every joyous thrill
Thy deeper tones of reverent awe:
Make pure Thy children’s erring will,
And teach their hearts to love Thy law.Play source: Cyberhymnal
