Praise the God of all creation,
Praise the Father's boundless love,
Praise the Lamb, our expiation,
Priest and King, enthroned above.

Praise the Fountain of salvation,
Him in whom his people live;
Undivided adoration
To the Lord Jehovah give.

About this hymn

As printed Words only. As printed: running head «WORSHIP—CLOSING HYMNS.»; hymn number «278» (large) with the reference line «162, 130, 960.» in italics beside it (sing to the tune of hymn 162, 130 or 960); the hymn stands in the left column, below hymn 277 («Anon.»), with «Josiah Conder.» in italics after the last stanza. The first word «PRAISE» is set in capitals and small capitals. The print sets a thin space before «;» and «!» («live ;»); it is closed up here. The printer's curly apostrophe is written straight («Father's»). Lines 2 and 4 of each stanza are indented in the print. Spelling, punctuation and capitals are the print's. No meter is printed (the text is 8s & 7s., 8.7.8.7, like the tunes of the reference line).
