Praise

Quotations

Peter Anderson

"The best atmosphere for prayer is praise."

Geoffry R. King

"Worship is the highest function of the human soul"

J.A.Motyer

"Our whole life .... should be so angled towards God that whatever strikes upon us, whether sorrow or joy, should be deflected upwards at once into his presence."

"We are called to an everlasting preoccupation with God"

"Worship, then, is not part of the Christian life; it is the Christian life"

Hymns

Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;
to his feet thy tribute bring;
ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like thee his praise should sing?
Praise him, Praise him
Praise him, Praise him
Praise the everlasting King.

Praise him for his grace and favor
to our fathers in distress;
praise him still the same for ever,
slow to chide and swift to bless:
Praise him, Praise him
Praise him, Praise him
Glorious in his faithfulness.

Father-like, he tends and spares us;
well our feeble frame he knows;
in his hand he gently bears us,
rescues us from all our foes.
Praise him, Praise him
Praise him, Praise him
Widely yet his mercy flows.

Angels, help us to adore him;
ye behold him face to face;
sun and moon, bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Praise him, Praise him
Praise him, Praise him
Praise with us the God of grace.
