I'll praise the Lord

I'll praise the Lord my great Jehovah
Praise your name till life seems over
Then praise your great name in heav'n above
For all you've done in sharing love.

That love oh how much there is to tell,
Of how it saves lost souls from hell
Of how it shows the way back to him
Then sets us free form reigning sin.

For Jesus came to earth from heaven,
Died on the cross and rose again.
Now he is seated at God's right hand
And soon he'll rule in every land.

For God is love in heaven we know
And, through his son. on earth below
For Jesus' death shows us God's good care
Care that we all must try to share.

But his death is no mere example
No, his grace is much more ample.
Yes it blots from God's view every wrong
And gives us strength to stay life-strong.
