I did seem to replace "temple" with "altar". I thought that this version was changed from the Catholic version. But found out it was probably more because I went to Divine Liturgy this morning, and then to Mass this evening, and maybe it was because I participated in the sacrifice at the altar twice?<br /><br />Here are the lyrics from the Oremus Hymnal:<br />Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation!<br />O my soul, praise him, for he is thy health and salvation!<br />All ye who hear, <br />now to his temple draw near;<br />praise him in glad adoration.<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, who over all things so wondrously reigneth,<br />shelters thee under his wings, yea, so gently sustaineth!<br />Hast thou not seen <br />how thy desires ever have been<br />granted in what he ordaineth?<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee;<br />surely his goodness and mercy here daily attend thee.<br />Ponder anew <br />what the Almighty can do,<br />if with his love he befriend thee.<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, who, when tempests their warfare are waging,<br />who, when the elements madly around thee are raging,<br />biddeth them cease, <br />turneth their fury to peace,<br />Whirlwinds and waters assuaging.<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, who, when darkness of sin is abounding,<br />who, when the godless do triumph, all virtue confounding,<br />sheddeth his light, <br />chaseth the horrors of night,<br />saints with his mercy surrounding.<br /><br />Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore him!<br />All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before him.<br />Let the amen <br />sound from his people again,<br />gladly for all we adore him.CWriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06654242399318374459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608676180400521343.post-68496606400205998792011-11-20T15:49:44.748-05:002011-11-20T15:49:44.748-05:00Amen.Amen.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11166363205001461183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608676180400521343.post-51657217720518427632011-11-20T13:57:59.115-05:002011-11-20T13:57:59.115-05:00Love this hymn.Love this hymn.Barbara Schoenebergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16951360211636509133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608676180400521343.post-22838803521045259242011-11-20T09:37:04.829-05:002011-11-20T09:37:04.829-05:00Great hymn.
