Lyics

O RENDER thanks to God above,

The fountain of eternal love;

Whose mercy firm through ages past

Has stood, and shall for ever last.



Who can his mighty deeds express,

Not only vast, but numberless!

What mortal eloquence can raise

His tribute of immortal praise!



Happy are they, and only they,

Who from thy judgments never stray;

Who know what's right; nor only so,

But always practise what they know.
