Tune: England's Lane
('For the beauty of the earth')
Psalm 105 v.1-8
********
O give thanks unto the LORD
Call upon Him, trust His word
Make known His deeds here among
The people, His praise be sung
Sing and speak of His wonders
And grace He on us confers
Glory in His holy name
Name of endless worth and fame
Let the heart of them rejoice
Who the LORD seek, that their choice
unto them He will appear
They shall know His presence dear
Seek the LORD, and His strength too
Seek His face e'ermore, e'en you
Remember works he has done
Marvellous they be each one
His wonders, His judgements sure
They all be holy and pure
Seed (descendants) of Abraham you be
Blessings you inherit, see
For the LORD our God is He
His judgements in the earth free
He to us has remembered
His covenant, be assured
In the word He commanded
Ever living, never dead
To thousand generations
Reaching unto all nations
Jews and Gentiles, peoples all
Come today and on Him call
