1 Give thanks to God most high,
The universal Lord;
The sov'reign King of kings;
And be his grace ador'd.
His pow'r and grace
Are still the same;
And let his name
Have endless praise.
2 How mighty is his hand!
What wonders hath he done!
He form'd the earth and seas,
And spread the heav'ns alone.
Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall still endure;
And ever sure
Abides thy word.
3 His wisdom fram'd the sun
To crown the day with light;
The moon and twinkling stars
To cheer the darksome night.
His pow'r and grace
Are still the same;
And let his name
Have endless praise.
4 He smote the first-born sons,
The flow'r of Egypt dead;
And thence his chosen tribes
With joy and glory led.
Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall still endure;
And ever sure
Abides thy word.
5 His pow'r and lifted rod
Cleft the Red-sea in two;
And for his people made
A wond'rous passage thro'.
His pow'r and grace
Are still the same;
And let his name
Have endless praise.
6 But cruel Pharaoh there
With all his host he drown'd;
And brought his Isra'l safe
Thro' a long desert ground.
Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall still endure;
And ever sure
Abides thy word.
Pause.
7 The kings of Canaan fell
Beneath his dreadful hand;
While his own servants took
Possession of their land.
His pow'r and grace
Are still the same;
And let his name
Have endless praise.
8 He saw the nations lie,
All perishing in sin,
And pity'd the sad state
The ruin'd world was in.
Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall still endure;
And ever sure
Abides thy word.
9 He sent his only Son
To save us from our woe,
From satan, sin and death,
And ev'ry hurtful foe.
His pow'r and grace
Are still the same;
And let his name
Have endless praise.
10 Give thanks aloud to God,
To God the heav'nly King:
And let the spacious earth
His works and glories sing.
Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall still endure;
And ever sure
Abides thy word.
