LyicsO Render thanks to God above,
The fountain of eternal love,
Whose mercy firm through ages past
Has stood, and shall forever last.
Who can his mighty deeds express,
Not only vast, but numberless?
What mortal eloquence can raise
His tribute of immortal praise?
Extend to me that favor, Lord,
Thou to thy chosen dost afford:
From my transgressions set me free,
And let me ever joy in thee.
