Prelude Processional Hymn Praise My Soul, The King of Heaven Hymnal #410 1. Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;

To his feet thy tribute bring. Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Evermore his praises sing: Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise the everlasting King.

2. Praise him for his grace and favor To his people in distress. Praise him still the same as ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless. Alleluia! Alleluia! Glorious in his faithfulness.

3. Father-like he tends and spares us; Well our feeble frame he knows. In his hands he gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Alleluia! Alleluia! Widely yet his mercy flows.

4. 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. Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace

3. And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long,

shall far outpass the power of human telling; for none can guess its grace, till Love create a place

Dearly loved of God on high, In exultant jubilation, Pours perpetual melody, God the One in Three adoring In glad hymns eternally.

3. To this temple, where we call thee, Come, O Lord of Hosts, today; With thy wonted lovingkindness Hear thy servants as they pray. And thy fullest benediction Shed within its walls alway.

4. Here vouchsafe to all thy servants

What they ask of thee to gain; What they gain from thee forever With the blessèd to retain, And hereafter in thy glory Evermore with thee to reign.
