76. With grateful heart my thanks I bring

1 With grateful heart my thanks I bring,
Before the great thy praise I sing;
I worship in thy holy place
And praise thee for thy truth and grace;
For truth and grace together shine
In thy most holy Word divine.

2 I cried to thee and thou didst save,
Thy Word of grace new courage gave;
The kings of earth shall thank thee, Lord,
For they have heard thy wondrous Word;
Yea, they shall come with songs of praise,
For great and glorious are thy ways.

3 O Lord, enthroned in glory bright,
Thou reignest in the heav'nly height;
The proud in vain thy favor seek,
But thou hast mercy for the meek;
Through trouble though my pathway be,
Thou wilt revive and strengthen me.

4 Thou wilt stretch forth thy mighty arm
To save me when my foes alarm;
The work thou hast for me begun
Shall by thy grace be fully done;
For ever mercy dwells with thee;
O Lord, my Maker, think on me.

Amen.
