107C. Give Thanks unto the LORD Our God

1 Give thanks unto the LORD our God.
How good and kind is he,
whose tender mercy shall endure
through all eternity.

2 Let God's redeemed repeat these words
and give him thanks and praise
who rescued them from hostile hands,
preserved them all their days.

3 He gathered them from out the lands,
from north, south, east, and west.
They strayed in desert's pathless way,
no city found to rest.

4 Their weary soul within them faints
when thirst and hunger press;
in trouble then they cried to God;
he saved them from distress.

5 He made the way before them straight,
and he became their guide,
that they might to a city go
and there in peace abide.

6 Let all the children of the LORD
now praise him for his grace,
and for his works of wonder done
in ev'ry time and place!
