97. Let Us with a Gladsome Mind

1 Let us with a gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for He is kind;
For His mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

2 He with all-commanding might
Filled the new-made world with light;
For His mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

3 He the golden-tressed sun
Caused all day his course to run;
For His mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

4 All things living He doth feed,
His full hand supplies their need;
For His mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

5 Let us then, with gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord, for He is kind;
For His mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
