XXXIV. To God, the Mighty Lord

I To God, the Mighty Lord,
Your joyful thanks repeat:
To him due praise afford,
As good as he is great.
For God does prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.

II To him whose wond'rous pow'r
All other Gods obey,
Whom earthly kings adore,
This grateful homage pay.
For God does prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.

III By his Almighty hand
Amazing works are wrought;
The heav'ns by his command
Were to perfection brought.
For God does prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.

IV He spread the ocean round
About the spacious land;
And made the rising ground
Above the waters stand.
For God does prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.

V Thro' heav'n he did display
His num'rous bolts of light;
The sun to rule by day,
The moon and stars by night.
For God does prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.

VI He does the food supply,
On which all creatures live;
To God who reigns on high
Eternal praises give.
For God will prove
Our constant friend,
His boundless love
Shall never end.
