HERE WR ARE TO PRAISE THEE, LORD

1. Here we are to praise Thee, Lord,
    For Thy perfect, saving grace,
    Grace that saved us from our sins,
    That we may see Thy face.

              CHORUS

    Come, let’s praise Him, young and old,
    Let’s magnify His Name,
    Let’s sing and preach the glorious truth,
    And set the world aflame.

2. Here we are to praise Thee, Lord,
    For Thy healing pow’r and might;
    By Thy stripes, Lord, we were healed;
    We’ll serve Thee day and night.

3. Here we are to praise Thee, Lord,
    For Thy pure, constraining love-
    Love that’s true and strong as death,
    And flows from Heav’n above.

4. Here we are to praise Thee, Lord,
    For Thy tender keeping care;
    All our sorrows, pains and tears,
    Lord, Thou didst with us share.

5. Here we are to praise Thee, Lord,
    For Thy strength day after day;
    Thou didst put our foes to flight,
    Who fought us on the way.

6. Here we are to praise, Thee, Lord,
    For the vision of Thy throne,
    And for New Jerusalem,
    Which Thou hast to us shown.
