More Details

"Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven" is a stirring arrangement of the beloved Christian hymn. It draws its text from Psalm 103 and was written by Anglican clergyman Henry Francis Lyte. It was first published in 1834.

This hymn endures in modern hymnals to a setting written by John Goss in 1868, and remains one of the most popular hymns in English-speaking denominations.

This arrangement was commissioned by the BYU Women's Chorus under the direction of Dr. Sonja Poulter and was premiered in the Salt Lake Tabernacle with the accompaniment on the famous Tabernacle organ.

Text

Praise, my soul, the King of heaven,
to his feet thy tribute bring;
ransomed healed, restored, forgiven,
who like me his praise should sing?
Praise him, praise Him, Alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.

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

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:
Praise him, praise Him, Alleluia!
widely as 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, Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.
