CCXCII. Praising God

1 Glory be to GOD on high, Hallelujah.
God whose glory fills the sky;
Peace on earth to man forgiv'n,
Man, the well belov'd of heav'n,

2 Sove'reign father, heav'nly king, Hallelujah.
Thee we now presume to sing, Hallelujah.
Glad thine attributes confess, Halleluajah.
Glorious all and numberless, Hallelujah.

3 Hail, by all thy works ador'd, Hallelujah.
Hail the everlasting LORD,
Thee, with thankful hearts we prove,
LORD of pow'r, and GOD of love!
