h, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
h, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
To God, the great, the ever blest,
Let songs of honor be addressed;
His mercy firm forever stands
Give Him the thanks His love demands.
Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord?
Who can declare all His praise?
Give thanks to God, invoke his name,
And tell the world his grace;
Sound through the earth his deeds of fame,
That all may seek his face.
Bless, O my soul, the God of grace;
His favors claim thy highest praise:
Why should the wonders he hath wrought
Be lost in silence and forgot?
Bless the Lord, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
He hears His saints, He knows their cry,
And by mysterious ways
Redeems the prisoners doomed to die,
And fills their tongues with praise.
For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations
Exalt the Lord our God,
And worship at His footstool—
He is holy.
Sing to the Lord, ye distant lands,
Ye tribes of every tongue;
His new discovered grace demands
A new and nobler song.
For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised
