Lyics

O GOD, my heart is fully bent
To magnify thy name;
My tongue, with cheerful songs of praise,
Shall celebrate thy fame.


To all the listening tribes, O Lord,
Thy wonders I will tell;
And to those nations sing thy praise
That round about us dwell;


Because thy mercy's boundless height
The highest heaven transcends;
And far beyond the' aspiring clouds
Thy faithful truth extends.


Be thou, O God, exalted high
Above the starry frame;
And let the world, with one consent,
Confess thy glorious name.
