Text: | O Bless the Lord, My Soul |
Author: | I. Watts, 1674-1748 |
Tune: | ST. THOMAS |
Composer: | A. Williams, 1731-76 |
1 O bless the Lord, my soul!
Let all within me join
And aid my tongue to bless His name
Whose favors are divine.
2 O bless the Lord, my soul,
Nor let His mercies lie
Forgotten in unthankfulness
And without praises die.
3 'Tis He forgives thy sins;
'Tis He relieves thy pain;
'Tis He that heals thy sicknesses
And makes thee young again.
4 He crowns thy life with love
When ransomed from the grave;
He that redeemed my soul from hell
Hath sovereign pow'r to save.
5 He fills the poor with good;
He gives the suff'rers rest:
The Lord hath judgments for the proud
And justice for th'oppressed.
6 His wondrous works and ways
He made by Moses known,
But sent the world His truth and grace
By His beloved Son.
