680. We Praise Thee, Lord of Earth and Skies

1 We praise Thee, Lord of earth and skies,
The Giver of all good,
For all Thy kind and rich supplies,
For raiment, health and food.

2 Our needs supplied, our hunger stay'd,
Our mortal part restored,
O, that our inmost souls be made
To love and praise the Lord.

3 Then, when our earthly wants shall end,
And earthly toils are o'er,
We'll feast with Christ, our dearest friend,
On Canaan's happy shore.
