1 My soul, with humble fervor raise
To God the voice of grateful praise;
And every mental power combine,
To bless His attributes divine.

2 Deep on my heart let memory trace
His acts of mercy and of grace;
Who, with a father’s tender care,
Saved me when sinking in despair:

3 Gave my repentant soul to prove
The joy of His forgiving love;
Poured balm into my bleeding breast,
And led my weary feet to rest.
