Text: | Give to our God immortal praise |
Author: | Isaac Watts 1674-1748 |
Tune: | ANTWERP |
Composer: | William Smallwood 1831-97 |
1 Give to our God immortal praise;
mercy and truth are all his ways;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
2 Give to the Lord of lords renown,
the King of kings with glory crown:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when lords and kings are known no more.
3 He built the earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
4 He fills the sun with morning light,
he bids the moon direct the night:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.
5 He sent his Son with power to save
from guilt and darkness and the grave:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
6 Through this vain world he guides our feet,
and leads us to his heavenly seat:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when this vain world shall be no more.
