84c. Exaltabo te

1 Thee will I laud my God and King,
and bless thy Name for aye:
2 For ever will I praise thy Name
and blesse thee day by day.
3 Great is the Lord, most worthy praise,
his greatnesse none can reach:
4 From race to race, they shall thy workes
praise, and thy power preach.

5 I of thy glorious Majesty
the beauty will record.
And meditate upon thy works
most wonderfull O Lord.
6 And they shall of thy powrr and of
thy frstfull acts declare:
And I to publish all abroad,
thy greatnessr will not spare.

7 And they into the mention shall
break of thy goodnessr great:
And I aloud thy righteousnesse
in singing shall repeat.
8 The Lord our God is gracious,
and mercifull also:
Of great abounding mercy, and
to anger he is slow.

9 Yea good to all, and all his works
His mercy doth exceed:
10 Lo all thy works do praise thee Lord,
and do thy honour spread.
11 Thy Saints do blesse thee and they do
thy kingdomes glory show"
12 And blaze thy power, to cause the sons
of men the same to know.

The second Part.

13 And of his mighty kingdome eke
do spread the glorious praise:
Thy kingdome Lord, a kingdome is
that doth endure alwaies:
And thy dominion through each age
endures without decay.
14 The Lord upholdeth them that fall,
their sliding he doth stay.

15 The eyes of all do wait on thee,
thou dost them all relieve:
And thou to each sufficing food
in season due dost give.
16 Thou openest thy plenteous hand,
and bounteously dost fill
All things whatsoever do live,
With gifts of thy good will.

17 The Lord is just in all his waies,
his works are holy all:
18 Neare all he is that call on him,
in truth that on him call.
19 He the desires which they require,
that feare him will fulfill:
And he will heare them when they cry,
and save them all he will.

20 The Lord preserves all those to him
that bear a loving heart:
But he all them that wicked are
will utterly subvert.
16 My thankfull mouth shall gladly speak
the praises of the Lord:
All flesh to praise his holy Name
for ever shall accord.
