O come, loud anthems let us sing,
Loud thanks to our Almighty King;
For we our voices high should raise,
When our salvation's Rock we praise.
O come, loud Anthems let us sing., Stanza 1

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above ye heav'nly host,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Awake my Soul, and with the Sun,, Stanza 14
Glory to thee my God, this Night, Stanza 12
Lord, now my Sleep does me forsake,, Stanza 13
