Song Lyrics for Today's Worship
“Sing Praise to God who Reigns Above”
1. Sing praise to God who reigns above, the God of all creation,
the God of power, the God of love, the God of our salvation.
With healing balm my soul is filled
and every faithless murmur stilled:
To God all praise and glory.
2. Thus all my toilsome way along, I sing aloud thy praises,
that earth may hear the grateful song my voice unwearied raises.
Be joyful in the Lord, my heart,
both soul and body bear your part:
To God all praise and glory.
3. Let all who name Christ's holy name give God all praise and glory;
let all who own his power proclaim aloud the wondrous story!
Cast each false idol from its throne,
for Christ is Lord, and Christ alone:
To God all praise and glory

"Bless the Lord, My Soul”
1. Bless the Lord, my Soul, and bless God’s holy name.
Bless the Lord, my Soul, who leads me into light. (Repeat)

“Blest Are They”
1. Blest are they, the poor in spirit;
theirs is the kingdom of God.
Blest are they, full of sorrow,
they shall be consoled
Refrain: Rejoice and be glad!
Blessed are you; holy are you!
Rejoice and be glad!
Yours is the Kingdom of God!
2. Blest are they, who show mercy,
mercy shall be theirs.
Blest are they, the pure of heart,
they shall see God. (Refrain)
3. Blest are you who suffer hate
all because of me.
Rejoice and be glad, yours is the kingdom,
shine for all to see. (Refrain x2)
