464. His Mercy Endureth

1 O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good;
for His mercy endureth forever.
O give thanks unto the God of gods;
for His mercy endureth forever.

2 O give thanks to the Lord of lords;
for His mercy endureth forever,
To Him who alone doeth great wonders:
for His mercy endureth forever.

3 To Him that by wisdom made the heavens:
for His mercy endureth forever,
To Him that stretched out the earth above the waters;
for His mercy endureth forever.

4 To Him that made great lights:
for His mercy endureth forever.
The sun to rule by day: the moon and stars to rule by night:
for His mercy endureth forever.

5 Who remembered us in our low estate:
for His mercy endureth forever.
And hath redeemed us from our enemies;
for His mercy endureth forever.

6 Who giveth food to all flesh:
for His mercy endureth forever.
O give thanks unto the God of heaven:
for His mercy endureth forever. Amen.
