To God the Great, the Ever Blest
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 87 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: To God, the great, the ever blest Lyrics: 1. To God, the great, the ever blest,
Let songs of honor be addressed;
His mercy firm forever stands
Give Him the thanks His love demands.
2. Who knows the wonders of Thy ways?
Who shall fulfill Thy boundless praise?
Blest are the souls that fear Thee still,
And pay their duty to Thy will.
3. Remember what Thy mercy did
For Jacob’s race, Thy chosen seed;
And with the same salvation bless
The meanest suppliant of Thy grace.
4. O may I see Thy tribes rejoice,
And aid their triumphs with my voice!
This is my glory, Lord, to be
Joined to Thy saints, and near to Thee. Used With Tune: MISSIONARY CHANT Text Sources: The Psalms of David

Person Name: Anon. Hymnal Title: Precious Gems No. 1 Author of "To God the great, the ever blessed" in Precious Gems No. 1 In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
