Lyics

LET every heart and tongue

Proclaim the Saviour's praise;

He is the source of all my joy.

His mercy crowns my days.



He knows my feeble frame,

Remembers I am dust;

And though He should my life destroy,

In Him I'll put my trust.



Each day He is my strength,

My hope, my life, my all;

And, while upon His arm I lean,

I surely can not fall.



Then, to my blessed Lord

Let grateful songs arise,

While angels bear the notes above,

And sound them through the skies.
