I'll Praise My Maker
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 533 hymnals Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Praise to God First Line: I'll praise my Maker while I've breath Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath,
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
while life, and thought, and being last,
or immortality endures.
2 How happy those whose hopes rely
on Israel's God, who made the sky,
and earth, and seas, with all their train:
whose truth forever stands secure;
who saves the oppressed and feeds the poor,
and none shall find God's promise vain.
3 The Lord pours eyesight to the blind;
the Lord supports the fainting mind
and sends the laboring conscience peace.
God helps the stranger in distress,
the widowed and the powerless,
and grants the prisoner sweet release.
4 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath,
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
while life, and thought, and being last,
or immortality endures. Scripture: Psalm 146 Used With Tune: OLD 113TH
