392b. Let us, with a gladsome mind

1 Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for he is kind:
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

2 Let us blaze his name abroad,
for of gods he is the God;
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

3 He, with all-commanding might,
filled the new-made world with light:
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

4 He the golden-tressèd sun
caused all day his course to run;
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

5 And the moon to shine at night,
'mid her starry sisters bright;
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

6 All things living he doth feed.
his full hand supplies their need:
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

7 Let us, with a gladsome mind
praise the Lord, for he is kind:
for his mercies ay endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
