389: Let us, with a gladsome mind


1 Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for he is kind:

Refrain:
For his mercies may endure,
ever faithful, ever sure.

2 Let us blaze his Name abroad,
for of gods he is the God: (Refrain)

3 He with all-commanding might
gilled the new-made world with light: (Refrain)

4 He the golden tressed sun
caused all day his course to run: (Refrain)

5 The horned moon to shine by night,
mid her spangled sisters bright: (Refrain)

6 All things living he doth feed,
his full hand supplies their need: (Refrain)

7 Let us, with a gladsome mind,
praise the Lord, for he is kind: (Refrain)
