Lyics

My helper God! I bless his name;

The same his power, his grace the same;

The tokens of his friendly care

Open and crown and close the year-

Open and crown and close the year.



I  mid ten thousand dangers stand,

Supported by his guardian hand;

And see, when I survey my ways,

Ten thousand monuments of praise-

Ten thousand monuments of praise.



Thus far his arm has led me on,

Thus far I make his mercy known;

And while I tread this desert land,

New blessings shall new songs demand-

New blessings shall new songs demand.
