#315Our Song of Praise

Words: E. S. Lorenz
Music: J. H. Fillmore
Tune: Praise
Meter: 10, 10, 10, 10.
1
Far away the noise of strife upon my ear is falling, Then I know the sin and sorrow of the sons of men; But when I catch the music of the triumphal calling, Then I know the soul of the people shall win.
2
For too long, and too long, And too long, I have waited, But thy hope shall not deceive me; For the hoped-for day at last, And the ransomed of the Lord to their home have come.
3
From the earth the risen and the freed ones sing rejoicing, Of the Lamb's great love that brought us from our sins; And our hearts as true respond; For with us he is dwelling, Lord of all to those who trust; Song of gratefulness and praise.
