Thanksgiving, C.M.D. [E]
| 1. |
1 To render thanks to Thee, O LORD,
It is a comely thing,
And to Thy name, O Thou Most High,
Due praise aloud to sing;
2 Thy loving kindness to show forth
When shines the morning light,
And to declare Thy faithfulness
With pleasure every night;
|
| 2. |
3 Upon a ten-stringed instrument
And on a psaltery,
Upon the harp with solemn sound,
With grave sweet melody.
4 For Thou, Jehovah, by Thy works
Hast gladness to me brought;
And I will triumph in the works
Which by Thy hands are wrought.
|
| 3. |
5 How great, Jehovah, are Thy works!
How deep Thine every thought!
6 Unthinking man does not know this,
And fools acknowledge not;
7 That wicked men spring up like grass,
As blossoms sinners start,
To be destroyed forevermore.
8 But, LORD, Thou ever art.
