Praise the Lord Who Reigns Above

15 Praise the Lord Who Reigns Above

1. Praise the Lord who reigns above,
   And keeps His court below;
   Praise the holy God of love,
   And all His greatness show;
   Praise Him for His noble deeds,
   Praise Him for His matchless pow'r;
   Him from whom all good proceeds
   Let earth and heav'n adore.

2. Celebrate th'eternal God
   With harp and psaltery,
   Timbrels soft and cymbals loud
   In His high praise agree;
   Praise Him ev'ry tuneful string;
   all the reach of heav'nly art,
   All the pow'rs of music bring,
   The music of the heart.

3. Him in whom they move and live,
   Let ev'ry creature sing,
   glory to their Maker give,
   And homage to their King.
   Hallowed by His name beneath,
   As in heav'n on earth adored;
   Praise the Lord in ev'ry breath,
   Let all things praise the Lord.
                         Charles Wesley

Somewhat unusually, there is only one more verse that appears to be part of this hymn. Hymnary.org has it:

2. Publish, spread to all around
   the great Jehovah’s name,
   Let the trumpet’s martial sound
   the Lord of hosts proclaim:
   Praise Him in the sacred dance,
   harmony’s full concert raise,
   Let the virgin choir advance,
   and move but to His praise.
