PSALM 22:25-31
METER: 76 76 D
SUGGESTED TUNES: AURELIA or LANCASHIRE
This is the meter of such hymns as "The Church's One Foundation" and "Lead On, O King Eternal."
1. I'll praise you with your peo-ple
For all you've done, O Lord;
With all who wor-ship you I
Will pay up on my vows.
The poor shall eat and be filled;
Those who come to the Lord
Shall praise his name for-ev-er.
May they pros-per always.
2. All na-tions will re-mem-ber
And turn un-to the Lord;
From all parts of the whole world,
From ev-ery race and clime,
They'll turn to him and wor-ship.
The Lord our God is King;
O'er earth he has do-min-ion;
The na-tions he does rule.
3. The proud bow down be-fore him;
All mor-tals shall serve him.
Pos-ter-i-ty shall serve God;
Peo-ple shall speak of him
To fu-ture gen-e-ra-tions,
To peo-ple yet un-born:
"The Lord has brought de-liv-erance,
His peo-ple he has saved."
