There are three great reasons to praise God: Creation, Providence, and Redemption.

All around us is the grandeur of CREATION. Science has opened up the heavens for us to understand the solar system, galaxies, and universe. The heavens declare the glory of God and the earth shows forth His handiwork. PROVIDENCE is the evidence of God’s hand guiding history and working with us in our individual lives. What would we do without His daily presence? REDEMPTION is what God has provided for us through the death, burial and resurrection of His only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, let us praise Him! Praise Him!




PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM!
Lyrics: Fanny Crosby
Music: Chester G. Allen
1869


Refrain:
Praise Him! Praise Him! Tell of His excellent greatness;
Praise Him! Praise Him! Ever in joyful song!

Verses:
Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!
Sing, O Earth, His wonderful love proclaim!
Hail Him! Hail Him! Highest archangels in glory;
Strength and honor give to His holy Name!
Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children,
In His arms He carries them all day long.

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!
For our sins He suffered, and bled, and died.
He our Rock, our hope of eternal salvation,
Hail Him! Hail Him! Jesus the Crucified.
Sound His praises! Jesus who bore our sorrows,
Love unbounded, wonderful, deep and strong.

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!
Heav’nly portals loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Savior, reigneth forever and ever;
Crown Him! Crown Him! Prophet, and Priest, and King!
Christ is coming! over the world victorious,
Pow’r and glory unto the Lord belong.
