Praise to God, Immortal Praise

Author: Anna L. Barbauld Hymnal: The Worshipbook #556 (1972) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Lyrics: 1 Praise to God, immortal praise, For the love that crowns our days; Bounteous source of every joy, Let your praise our tongues employ. 2 Flocks that whiten all the plain, Yellow sheaves of ripened grain, Clouds that drop their fattening dews, Suns that temperate warmth diffuse: 3 All that spring with bounteous hand Scatters o'er the smiling land! All that liberal autumn pours From her rich o'erflowing stores— 4 These to you, O God, we owe, Source whence all our blessings flow; And for these our souls shall raise Grateful vows and solemn praise. Amen.

And round my heart still closely twine Those ties which naught can sever, For I am His and He is mine, Forever and forever. 2 I’ve found a Friend, O such a Friend! He bled, He died to save me; And not alone the gift of life, But His own self He gave me. Naught that I have mine own I call, I’ll hold it for the Giver; My heart, my strength, my life, my all Are His, and His forever. 3 I’ve found a Friend, O such a Friend! So kind and true and tender, So wise a Counselor and Guide, So mighty a Defender! From Him who loves me now so well What pow'r my soul can sever? Shall life or death, or earth or hell? No!
