Praise God, for he is kind:
His mercy lasts for aye.
Give thanks with heart and mind
To God of gods alway:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
The Lord of lords praise ye,
Whose mercies still endure.
Great wonders only he
Doth work by his great pow�r
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Which God omnipotent,
By might and wisdom high,
The heav�n and firmament
Did frame, as we may see:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
To him who did outstretch
This earth so great and wide,
Above the waters� reach
Making it to abide:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Great lights he made to be;
For his grace lasteth aye:
Such as the sun we see,
To rule the lightsome day:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Also the moon so clear,
Which shineth in our sight;
The stars that do appear,
To guide the darksome night:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
To him that Egypt smote,
Who did his message scorn;
And in his anger hot
Did kill all their first-born:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Thence Isr�el out he brought;
For his grace lasteth ever.
With a strong hand he wrought,
And stretch�d-out arm deliver:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
The sea he cut in two;
For his grace lasteth still.
And through its midst to go
Made his own Israel:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
But overwhelm�d and lost
Was proud king Pharaoh,
With all his mighty host,
And chariots there also:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
To him who pow�rfully
His chosen people led,
Ev�n through the desert dry,
And in that place them fed:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
To him great kings who smote;
For his grace hath no bound.
Who slew, and spared not
Kings famous and renown�d:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Sihon the Am�rites� king;
For his grace lasteth ever:
Og also, who did reign
The land of Bashan over:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Their land by lot he gave;
For his grace faileth never,
That Isr�el might it have
In heritage for ever:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Who hath remembered
Us in our low estate;
And us delivered
From foes which did us hate:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
Who to all flesh gives food;
For his grace faileth never.
Give thanks to God most good,
The God of heav�n, for ever:
For certainly His mercies dure
Most firm and sure Eternally.
