Hymn No.174
First Line: Stand up, and bless the Lord,
1
Stand up, and bless the Lord,
ye people of his choice;
stand up, and bless the Lord your God
with heart and soul and voice.
2
Though high above all praise,
above all blessing high,
who would not fear his holy name,
and laud and magnify?
3
O for the living flame
from his own altar brought,
to touch our lips, our mind inspire,
and wing to heaven our thought.
4
God is our strength and song,
and his salvation ours;
then be his love in Christ proclaimed
with all our ransomed powers.
5
Stand up, and bless the Lord,
the Lord your God adore;
stand up, and bless his glorious name
henceforth for evermore.
