Our song of the month for August is “Give Praise to God” – a Doxology in title and content: calling us to give glory to our triune God for who He is and what He has done.
Give Praise to God
Verse 1
Give praise to God who reigns above
for perfect knowledge, wisdom, love;
His judgments are divine, devout,
His paths beyond all tracing out.
Refrain
Come, lift our voice to heav’n’s high throne,
and glory give to God alone!
Verse 2
No one can counsel God all-wise
or truths unveil to His sharp eyes;
He marks our paths behind, before;
He is our steadfast Counselor.
Verse 3
Nothing exists that God might need,
for all things good from Him proceed.
We praise Him as our Lord, and yet
we never place God in our debt.
Verse 4
Creation, life, salvation too,
and all things else both good and true,
come from and through our God always,
and fill our hearts with grateful praise.
