All Ye Who on This Earth Do Dwell

All ye who on this earth do dwell

Give thanks and glor­ify

The Lord whose prais­es ev­er swell

In ser­aph songs on high.

Lift up your hearts in praise to God

Himself best Gift of all

Who works His won­ders all abroad

Upholding great and small.

Since first our life be­gan to be

He has pre­served our frame;

And when man’s strength was va­ni­ty

He as our help­er came.

Though oft­en we His pa­tience try

And well de­serve His frown

In grace He lays His an­ger by

And pours new bless­ings down.

’Tis He re­vives our faint­ing soul

Gives joy­ful hearts to men;

And when great waves of trou­ble roll

He drives them back again.

May He ad­orn with pre­cious peace

Our own

our na­tive

land

And crown with joys that nev­er cease

The la­bors of our hand!

Long as we tar­ry here be­low

Our sav­ing health is He;

And when from earth to Heav’n we go

May He our por­tion be!
