Lyics

GOD is the fountain whence

Ten thousand blessings flow;

To him my life, my health, and friends,

And every good, I owe.



The comforts he affords

Are neither few nor small;

He is the source of fresh delights,

My portion and my all.



He fills my heart with joy,

My lips attunes for praise,

And to his glory I'll devote

The remnant of my days.
