The Ornaments of Praise
From the rising of the sun,
Until it sets in the west;
Praise onto the Three in One,
For all that you have been blest.
Great is the Lord our God,
Greatly is He to be praised;
And as you honor and laud,
Let your voice lift and be raised.
Within any holy place,
Wherever it just might be;
In the comfort of His grace,
As you bow on bended knee.
Unto all the world proclaim,
From sea depths to mountain tops,
Praise onto God in His name,
Your extolment never stops.
Praise to the ends of the earth,
Righteousness on the right hand;
The Messiah and His birth,
To proclaim throughout the land.
For this God is our God,
Forever is our guide;
No matter where we have trod,
Having be there to abide.
