Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for He is kind:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
Let us shout His name abroad,
for of gods He is the God:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
He with all-commanding might
filled the new-made world with light:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
Every living thing He feeds;
His abundance meets their need:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
He His chosen race did bless
in the barren wilderness:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
With His kind and gentle eye,
He looks on our misery:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
Alleluia!
Let us sound His praises forth,
His high majesty and worth:
for His mercies shall endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.
