Savior's Symphony

"Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in His sanctuary: praise Him in the firmament of His power. Praise Him for His mighty acts: praise Him according to His excellent greatness.... Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord" (Psalm 150:1,2,6).

Our God conducts the orchestration
Of His symphony of praise.
We're waiting with anticipation:
He directs each one who plays.

Thus we lift attentive eyes
To see the nod of His direction:
Praise Him in the spacious skies,
For His power and perfection.

Praise Him for His mighty acts:
In all the earth they are not hid.
Creation and the cross are facts:
Now praise the Lord for all He did!

Praise Him for His excellence,
Ascribing greatness to His name.
Our Lord deserves preeminence
For who He is and why He came.

Let each of us devote our breath
In this our Savior's symphony,
Who took away the sting of death
And robbed the grave of victory.
