The Psalter ‎#377

377. Divine Love

1 O thank the Lord, the Lord of love,
O thank the God, all gods above;
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

2 O thank the mighty King of kings,
Whose arm has done such wondrous things.
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

3 His wisdom gave the heav'ns their birth,
And on the waters spread the earth;
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

4 He taught yon glorious lights their way,
He made the sun to rule the day.
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

5 He set the moon, with milder light,
And shining stars to rule the night;
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

6 He thought on us amid our woes,
And rescued us from all our foes;
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.

7 Give thanks to heaven's Almighty King,
Who daily feeds each living thing.
His tender mercies ever sure
To all eternity endure.
