Composer: | Anon. |
1 Let us, with a gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord, for he is kind:
Refrain: For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
2 Let us blaze his Name abroad,
For of gods he is the God: [Refrain]
3 He with all-commanding might
Filled the new-made world with light: [Refrain]
4 All things living he doth feed;
His full hand supplies their need: [Refrain]
5 He his chosen race did bless
In the wasteful wilderness: [Refrain]
6 He hath with a piteous eye
Looked upon our misery: [Refrain]
7 Let us therefore warble forth
His high majesty and worth: [Refrain]
Amen.
