072 - praise the Lord, the almighty [German translation]

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,

the King of creation!

O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy

health and salvation!

All ye who hear,

Now to His temple draw near;

Sing now in glad adoration!

Praise to the Lord, who o’er all

things so wondrously reigneth,

Who, as on wings of an eagle,

uplifteth, sustaineth.

Hast thou not seen

How thy desires all have been

Granted in what He ordaineth?

Praise to the Lord, who hath fearfully,

wondrously, made thee!

Health hath vouchsafed and, when

heedlessly falling, hath stayed thee.

What need or grief

Ever hath failed of relief?

Wings of His mercy did shade thee.

Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper

thy work and defend thee,

Who from the heavens the streams of

His mercy doth send thee.

Ponder anew

What the Almighty can do,

Who with His love doth befriend thee.

Praise to the Lord! Oh, let all that

is in me adore Him!

All that hath life and breath, come

now with praises before Him!

Let the Amen

Sound from His people again;

Gladly for aye we adore Him.
