1 Give to our God immortal praise;
Mercy and truth are all his ways:
Wonders of Grace to God belong,
Repeat his mercies in your song.
2 Give to the Lord of lords renown,
The King of kings with glory crown;
His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more.
3 He built the earth, he spread the sky,
And fix'd the starry lights on high:
Wonders of Grace to God belong,
Repeat his mercies in your song.
4 He fills the sun with morning light,
He bids the moon direct the night;
His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more.
5 The Jews he freed from Pharaoh's hand,
And brought them to the promis'd land;
Wonders of Grace to God belong,
Repeat his mercies in your song.
6 He saw the Gentiles dead in sin,
And felt his pity move within;
His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more.
7 He sent his Son with pow'r to save
From guilt, and darkness, and the grave;
Wonders of Grace to God belong,
Repeat his mercies in your song.
8 Thro' this vain world he guides our feet,
And leads us to his heav'nly seat:
His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more.
