Danta De 52: Praise the Lord

G          Em          Am        D
Praise the Lord as the Word made flesh!
   G             Em            C        D
We praise you, O Lord, in your life and death.
   G             D             G     Em
We praise you, O Lord, in your glory when
      G      Em         Am    D
you defeated death and arose again.


G          Em         Am         D
Praise the Father who lights the stars!
     G          Em        C      D
Sing praise the Spirit in us and ours.
   G            D            G    Em
We pray for the help of your Trinity
	G          Em     Am   D
as your love calls us to eternity.


G      Em      Am        D
Let us never offend you, Lord.
   G         Em        C         D
No longer permit us to break our word
    G         D               G        Em
but bring us around with your Precious Blood
     G         Em          Am   D
to accept your will as our only good.


G          Em         Am        D
Praise the Lord on the harp and drum,
   G          Em         C    D
on fiddle, guitar, and accordion.
   G           D           G      Em
We play and we sing with a single voice
       G           Em           Am     D
and we praise you, Lord, with a joyful noise.


G          Em          Am        D
Praise the Lord on the slide trombone,
    G            Em             C   D
the trumpet, the flute, and the saxophone,
   G         D        G         Em
on clarinet, oboe, bassoon, and bass
       G     Em          Am    D
and in every clan of the human race.
