P145f. O Lord, thou art my God and King

1 O Lord, thou art my God and King;
thee will I magnify and praise:
I will thee bless, and gladly sing
unto thy holy name always.
2 Each day I rise I will thee bless,
and praise thy name time without end.
3 Much to be praised, and great God is;
his greatness none can comprehend.

4 Race shall thy works praise unto race,
the mighty acts show done by thee.
5 I will speak of the glorious grace,
and honour of thy majesty;
thy wondrous works I will record.
6 By men the might shall be extolled
of all thy dreadful acts, O Lord:
and I thy greatness will unfold.

7 They utter shall abundantly
the memory of thy goodness great;
and shall sing praises cheerfully,
whilst they thy righteousness relate.
