LyicsTO God the mighty Lord
Your joyful thanks repeat;
To him due praise afford,
As good as he is great.
For God does prove our constant friend,
His boundless love shall never end.
To him, whose wond'rous power
All other gods obey,
Whom earthly kings adore,
This grateful homage pay.
By his almighty hand
Amazing works are wrought;
The heavens by his command
Were to perfection brought.
He spread the ocean round
About the spacious land;
And made the rising ground
Above the waters stand.
Through heaven he did display
His num'rous hosts of light;
The sun to rule by day,
The moon and stars by night.
He does the food supply,
On which all creatures live;
To God, who reigns on high,
Eternal praises give.
For God will prove our constant friend,
His boundless love shall never end.
