1 Let us with a gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for he is kind:
Refrain:
For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
2 Let us blaze his Name abroad,
For of gods he is the God: [Refrain]
3 He, with all-commanding might,
Filled the new-made world with light: [Refrain]
4 He his chosen race did bless
In the wasteful wilderness: [Refrain]
5 All things living he doth feed;
His full hand supplies their need: [Refrain]
6 Let us then with gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for he is kind: [Refrain]
