Sing Your Praise

You are our Lord; we declare you before all.

We will praise you before those you call.

Those who respect and love you, praise you.

From days long ago you have proven true.


Our enemies point at us and openly mock,

But He has revealed this as empty talk.

We are the children of the most high God;

We are but travelers upon this earthly sod.


Lord, your servants shall feast and be filled;

They shall see your glory and be thrilled.

You give us cause and strength to praise;

Our lives belong to you for endless days.


Dominion belongs to you; you rule all nations;

Our King, whose blood bought our salvation.

As our fathers spoke of your deeds, so shall we;

That generation to generation your love will see.


When our time in this wilderness is through,

The trumpet shall sound calling us home to you.

As we remember our life we will stand amazed.

Lord grant us the strength to sing your praise.
