Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Stand up, and bless the Lord,
Ye people of his choice;
Stand up, and bless the Lord your God
With heart and soul and voice.
VERSE 2
Though high above all praise,
Above all blessing high,
Who would not fear his holy name,
And laud and magnify?
VERSE 3
O for the living flame
From his own altar brought,
To touch our lips, our mind inspire,
And wing to heaven our thought!
VERSE 4
God is our strength and song,
And his salvation ours;
Then be his love in Christ proclaimed
With all our ransomed powers.
VERSE 5
Stand up, and bless the Lord,
The Lord your God adore;
Stand up, and bless his glorious name
Henceforth for evermore.
