145a. I Will Exalt My God and King

1 I will exalt my God and King,
and I will ever praise Your Name.
I will extol You ev'ry day
and evermore Your praise proclaim.
You LORD, are greatly to be praised;
Your greatness is beyond all thought.
From age to age Your people tell
the mighty wonders You have wrought.

2 On Your most glor'ous majesty
and on Your deeds my mind will dwell.
Your deeds will fill the world with awe,
and all Your greatness I will tell.
Your matchless goodness and Your grace
Your people will commemorate;
and all Your truth and righteousness
our joyful song will celebrate.

3 The LORD our God is rich in grace,
tender to us, compassionate.
His anger is most slow to rise;
His love and kindness are most great.
The LORD is good in all His ways;
His creatures know His constant care.
To all His works His love extends;
all creatures in His mercies share.

4 All You have made will praise You, LORD;
Your mighty acts Your saints will show,
'til all the peoples on the earth
the splendor of Your kingdom know.
Eternal is Your kingdom, LORD,
forever strong and ever sure;
while generations rise and die,
Your glor'ous reign will still endure.
