The Cyber Hymnal ‎#3157

3157. I Will Extol Thee, O My God

1. I will extol Thee, O my God,
and praise Thee, O my king;
Yea, every day and evermore
Thy praises will I sing.
Great is the Lord, our mighty God,
and greatly to be praised;
His greatness is unsearchable,
above all glory raised.

2. Each generation to the next
shall testimony bear,
And to Thy praise, from age to age,
Thy wondrous acts declare;
Upon Thy glorious majesty
and honor I will dwell,
And all Thy grand and glorious works
and all Thy greatness tell.

3. Thy mighty acts and terrible
shall men with awe confess;
Of Thy great goodness they shall sing,
and perfect righteousness.
Most gracious and compassionate
is God who reigns above;
His wrath is ever slow to rise,
unbounded is His love.
