O faithful God, thanks be to Thee

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O faithful God, thanks be to Thee, That Thou forgiv'st iniquity, And helpest me in sin's distress, And dost my soul and body bless. 2 By servant Thine Thou say'st to me: "My child, thy sin's forgiven thee! Depart in peace, and sin no more, And e'er my pard'ning grace adore." 3 Yea, Lord, we bless the wondrous grace That granteth us this joyful peace; It is through Jesus' precious blood That we enjoy the heavenly good. 4 Now, Lord, us all Thy Spirit give, Help us in holiness to live; Preserve to us, till life is spent, Thy Holy Word and Sacrament.
