Give Thanks to God Most High

Give thanks to God most high

The uni­vers­al Lord;

The sov­er­eign King of kings;

And be His grace ad­ored.

His pow­er and grace

Are still the same;

And let His name

Have end­less praise.

How migh­ty is His hand!

What won­ders hath He done!

He formed the earth and seas

And spread the heav’ns alone.

Thy mer­cy

Lord

Shall still en­dure;

And ev­er sure

Abides Thy Word.

His wis­dom framed the sun

To crown the day with light;

The moon and twink­ling stars

To cheer the dark­some night.

His pow­er and grace

Are still the same;

And let His name

Have end­less praise.

He smote the first-born sons

The flow­er of Egypt

dead;

And thence His chos­en tribes

With joy and glo­ry led.

Thy mer­cy

Lord

Shall still en­dure;

And ev­er sure

Abides Thy Word.

His pow­er and lift­ed rod

Cleft the Red Sea in two;

And for His peo­ple made

A won­drous pas­sage through.

His pow­er and grace

Are still the same;

And let His name

Have end­less praise.

But cru­el Pha­raoh there

With all his host

He drowned;

And brought His Is­ra­el safe

Through a long de­sert ground.

Thy mer­cy

Lord

Shall still en­dure;

And ev­er sure

Abides Thy Word.

The kings of Ca­naan fell

Beneath His dread­ful hand;

While His own serv­ants took

Possession of their land.

His pow­er and grace

Are still the same;

And let His name

Have end­less praise.

He saw the na­tions lie

All per­ish­ing in sin

And pi­tied the sad state

The ru­ined world was in.

Thy mer­cy

Lord

Shall still en­dure;

And ev­er sure

Abides Thy Word.

He sent His on­ly Son

To save us from our woe

From Sa­tan

sin

and death

And ev­ery hurt­ful foe.

His pow­er and grace

Are still the same;

And let His name

Have end­less praise.

Give thanks aloud to God

The God the heav­en­ly King;

And let the spa­cious earth

His works and glo­ries sing.

Thy mer­cy

Lord

Shall still en­dure;

And ev­er sure

Abides Thy Word.
