1 Let us with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord forever kind:
for his mercies aye endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
2 Who with all-commanding might
filled the new-made world with light:
for his mercies aye endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
3 Who the golden-tressed sun
caused all day its course to run:
for his mercies aye endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
4 All things living God doth feed,
with full hand supplies their need:
for his mercies aye endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
5 Let us with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, forever kind:
for his mercies aye endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
