408. Magnify Jehovah's Name

1 Magnify Jehovah's Name;
For His mercies ever sure,
From eternity the same,
To eternity endure.

2 Let His ransom'd flock rejoice
Gather'd out of every land,
As the people of His choice,
Pluck'd from the destroyer's hand.

3 In the wilderness astray,
In the lonely waste they roam,
Hungry, fainting by the way,
Far from refuge, shelter, home:

4 To the Lord their God they cry;
He inclines a gracious ear,
Sends deliverance from on high,
Rescues them from all their fear.

5 Them to pleasant lands he brings,
Where the vine and olive grow;
Where from verdant hills, the springs
Through luxuriant valleys flow.

6 O that men would praise the Lord,
for His goodness to their race;
For the wonders of His word,
And the riches of His grace!
