Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven is a Christian hymn. Its text, which draws from Psalm 103, was written by Anglican divine (clergyman) Henry Francis Lyte. The hymn is frequently sung in the United Kingdom and was used in the 1947 royal wedding of H.R.H. the Princess Elizabeth, now Queen Elizabeth II, and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.〔 ==Lyrics== 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! 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! 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 ! 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 ! Praise with us the God of grace. There is a fifth stanza to the poem, not often seen, inserted between the third and fourth stanzas above: Frail as summer's flower we flourish, Blows the wind and it is gone; But while mortals rise and perish God endures unchanging on, Praise Him, praise Him, Praise Him, praise Him, Praise the High Eternal One! 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
