E131. Now Thank We All Our God

1 Now thank we all our God,
With heart and hands and voices;
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom His earth rejoices;
Who from our mother's arms
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.

2 Oh! may this bounteous God,
Thro' all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts,
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills,
In this world and the next.

3 All praise and thanks to God
The Father, now be given,
The Son and Him who reigns
With them in highest heaven:
The One eternal God,
Whom earth and heav'n adore:
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
