Centennial version of the Doxology:

PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSING FLOW

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him all creatures here below,
Praise Him above ye heavenly hosts.
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Thank God for those who built this place,
For those whose efforts spread your grace.
For those who built a temple here,
Thank God for Elim's pioneers.

Sing praise for how your music tells
The love of God who in here dwells.
Through voice and bells and harmony,
Through sounds of praise your face we see.

Through struggles, trials, joys, and fears,
You've given us one hundred years.
New challenges to us you bring
To share with all that you are King.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him all creatures here below.
Praise Him above ye heavenly hosts.
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

AMEN.
