Composer: | Sir Arthur Sullivan, 1842-1900 |
1. Let us with a gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for He is kind;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
2. He, with all-commanding might
Filled the new-made world with light:
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
3. He the golden tressed sun
Caused all day his course to run;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
4. And the moon to shine by night
'Mong her spangled sisters bright:
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
5. All things living He doth feed,
His full hand supplies their need
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
6. Let us, then, with gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for He is kind
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
