Praise the Lord

Lyrics by John Kempthorne (1775-1838), based on Psalm 148:1-2. Music by Lowell Mason (1841).

The tenor in me has always gotten a little excited when this number has been called. I just love this line: "God hath made His saints victorious, sin and death shall not prevail". Made even more powerful by the echo in the tenor/bass. "Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." - 1 Corinthians 15:57
