Sheet music

  1. 1Stand up and bless the Lord,Ye people of His choice;Stand up and bless the Lord your GodWith heart and soul and voice.Tho high above all praise,Above all blessing high,Who would not fear His holy Name,And laud and magnify?
  2. 2Oh, for the living flameFrom His own altar brought,To touch our lips, our minds inspire,And wing to heav’n our tho’t!God is our strength and song,And His salvation ours;Then be His love in Christ proclaimedWith all our ransomed pow’rs.
  3. 3Stand up and bless the Lord;The Lord your God adore;Stand up and bless His glorious name;Henceforth forevermore.
