94. His Mercy Flows An Endless Stream.

1 O thank the Lord, the Lord of love,
O thank the God, all gods above;
O thank the mighty King of kings,
Whose arm has done such wondrous things.

Chorus:
His mercy flows an endless stream
To all eternity the same,
To all eternity,
To all eternity,
To all eternity the same.

2 Whose wisdom gave the heav'ns their birth,
And on the waters spread the earth;
Who taught you glorious lights their way,
The radiant sun to rule the day. [Chorus]

3 The moon and stars to rule the night
With radiance of a milder light;
Who smote th' Egyptians' stubborn pride,
When in His wrath their firstborn died. [Chorus]

4 But led His Israel from their land,
With outstretched arm and conq'ring hand;
Whose hand the Red Sea's waters clave,
And guided Israel through the wave. [Chorus]

5 But buried Pharaoh and his bands,
And led his flock through desert lands,
Who smote proud monarchs in their might,
And warlike princes slew in fight. [Chorus]

6 Sihon, the king of Heshbon's towers,
And Og, the Lord of Bashan's powers,
And for inheritance their land
He gave to Israel's chosen band. [Chorus]

7 Who thought on us amid our woes,
And rescued us from all our foes;
Who daily feeds each living thing;
O thank the heaven's Almighty King. [Chorus]
