Lyics

O LORD, thou art my God and King;

Thee will I magnify and praise;

I will thee bless, and gladly sing

Unto thy holy name always.



Each day I rise I will thee bless,

And praise thy name time without end.

Much to be prais'd, and great God is;

His greatness none can comprehend.



Race shall thy works praise unto race,

The mighty acts show done by thee.

I will speak of the glorious grace,

And honor of thy majesty;



Thy wondrous works I will record.

By men the might shall be extoll'd

Of all thy dreadful acts, O Lord;

And I thy greatness will unfold.



They utter shall abundantly

The mem'ry of thy goodness great,

And shall sing praises cheerfully,

While they thy righteousness relate.



The Lord our God is gracious,

Compassionate is he also;

In mercy he is plenteous,

But unto wrath and anger slow.
