11660. O Praise The Lord Of Heaven

1 O praise the Lord of Heaven,
Whose mercy never fails;
Six troubles come, and also seven,
But still His grace prevails.

2 The year that’s almost past
His goodness did proclaim;
His love doth now and always last,
Give glory to His name.

3 How wondrous are His ways
Which He to us makes known!
We join to sing our maker’s praise;
And worship Him alone.

4 When we the year begun
We raised our cheerful songs;
And surely when its course is run
To God our praise belongs.

5 His mercies still are new,
Let us extol His love
May we this blessèd theme pursue
Till we shall meet above.
