O give the Lord whole-hearted
praise,
To Him thanksgiving I will
bring;
With all His people I will raise
My voice and of His glory sing.
His saints delight to search and
trace
His mighty works and wondrous
ways;
Majestic glory, boundless grace,
And righteousness His work
displays.
The wondrous works that God
has wrought
His people ever keep in mind;
His works with grace and mercy
fraught,
Revealing that the Lord is kind.
God’s promise shall forever
stand,
He cares for those who trust His
Word;
Upon His saints His mighty hand
The wealth of nations has
conferred.
His works are true and just
indeed,
His precepts are forever sure;
In truth and righteousness
decreed,
They shall forevermore endure.
From Him His saints’
redemption came;
His cov’nant sure no change can
know;
Let all revere His holy Name
In Heav’n above and earth below
In reverence and godly fear
Man finds the gate to wisdom’s
ways;
The wise His holy Name revere;
Through endless ages sound His
praise.
