Praise ye the Lord all ye nations
The Lord is reigning, you people rejoice
The Word of the Lord is a two-edged sword
He's placed it in our hands
Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord forever
The word of the Lord shall endure forever and ever
His merciful kindness is great toward us
Is with us to the end
Now let us go on to perfection
Leaving behind the old carnal mind
Press toward the mark of the high call of God
Which is the fullness of Christ
Praise the Lord for His mercy
Praise the Lord for His love
His everlasting love
Praise the Lord for His kindness
Praise the Lord for His Son
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord forever
