Praise to God, Immortal Praise

Author: Anna Laetitia Barbauld Hymnal: Voices United #521 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Steadfastness Lyrics: 1 Praise to God, immortal praise, for the love that crowns our days; bounteous source of every joy, let your praise our tongues employ: 2 for the blessings of the fields, for the stores the garden yields, flocks that whiten all the plain; yellow sheaves of ripened grain: 3 all that spring with bounteous hand scatters o'er the smiling land, all that liberal autumn pours from its rich o'erflowing stores; 4 These to you, O God, we owe, source from which all blessings flow; and for these our souls shall raise grateful vows and solemn praise.

And shall I fear to own His cause? Or blush to speak His name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, By faith they bring it nigh. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all Thine armies shine In robes of vict'ry through the skies, The glory shall be Thine. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DURING
