1 Let us with a gladsome mind
praise the Lord, so good and kind,
for God's mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
2 Let us blaze God's name abroad;
of all gods the Lord is God,
for God's mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
3 God with all-commanding might
filled the new-made world with light,
for God's mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
4 All things living God doth feed;
with full hand supplies their need,
for God's mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
5 Let us then with gladsome mind
praise the Lord, so good and kind,
for God's mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
