136

O let Israel bless the Lord; praise Him and magnify Him for ever.

Let Israel praise Him with a song,
And laud His love and lift His fame;
For them He came in cloud and flame
To teach the bounds of right and wrong;
Bore them on eagles' wings along,
And made a people for His Name:
Let Israel praise Him with a song,
And laud His love and lift His fame.
He deigned to dwell His saints among;
For them a Virgin's Child He came;
Blameless He took away their blame,
Becoming weak to make them strong:
Let Israel praise Him with a song,
And laud His love and lift His fame.
