Lyics

To God the great, the ever-blest,

Let songs of honor be address'd;

His mercy firm forever stands;

Give him the thanks his love demands!



Who knows the wonder of his ways?

Who can make known his boundless praise?

Blest are the souls that fear him still,

And learn submission to his will.
