Extol him high Who spreads his clouds along the sky; There he prepares the fruitful rain, Nor lets the drops descend in vain. 4 He makes the grass the hills adorn, And clothes the smiling fields with corn; The beasts with food his hands supply, And the young ravens when they cry. 5 His saints are lovely in his sight; He views his children with delight; He sees their hope, he knows their fear, He looks and loves his image here.

Lyrics: 1 "Oh give thanks, for God is gracious!" now may Israel truly say; through great trials God has brought us to the dawn of this new day. All God's children, praise the wonders God has done. 2 When God's people walked the desert, hungry, thirsty, faint of heart, God prepared for them a city, gave them hope and took their part. All God's children, praise the wonders God has done. 3 Those who steer their ships through trouble, ride the storm and plumb the deep, reach at length their promised haven, bless that grace which brings them sleep. All God's children, praise the wonders God has done. 4 Oh give thanks for all God's mercies: fields are watered, crops are sown, sheep and cattle fill the pastures, babes in arms have safely grown. All God's children, praise the wonders God has done. Scripture: Psalm 107:1-9 Used With Tune: WYLDE GREEN
