95. Thank and praise Jehovah's name!

1 Thank and praise Jehovah's name!
For His mercies, firm and sure,
From eternity the same,
To eternity endure,
To eternity endure.

2 Let the ransomed thus rejoice,
Gathered out of every land,
As the people of His choice,
Plucked from the destroyer's hand,
Plucked from the destroyer's hand.

3 To a pleasant land He brings,
Where the vine and olive grow,
Where, from flowery hills, the springs
Through luxuriant valleys flow,
Through luxuriant valleys flow.

4 Oh, that men would praise the Lord
For His goodness to their race;
For the wonders of His word,
And the riches of His grace!
And the riches of His grace!

Amen.
