Lyics

PRAISE to God--immortal praise,

For the love that crowns our days:

Bounteous source of every joy,

Let thy praise our tongues employ.



All that spring, with bounteous hand,

Scatters o'er the smiling land;

All that liberal autumn pours,

From her rich o'erflowing stores.



These, to that dear source we owe,

Whence our sweetest comforts flow;

These, through all my happy days,

Claim my cheerful songs of praise.



Lord, to thee my soul shall raise

Grateful, never-ending praise;

And, when every blessing's flown,

Love thee for thyself alone.
