Give Thanks and Praise to God Above

lyricist: The Psalter, 1912
Composer: Samuel Stanley, 1810

Give thanks and praise to God ab­ove

For ev­er­last­ing is His love;

Praise Him

ye saints

your Sav­ior praise

Forever good in all His ways.

Let all His serv­ants tell abroad

The nev­er-fail­ing grace of God;

Let all who fear Je­ho­vah’s name

His ev­er­last­ing love pro­claim.

In bond­age of dis­tress and grief

To God I cried

and sought re­lief;

In won­drous love He heard my plea

And set my soul at li­ber­ty.

Though foes as­sail I will not fear

For at my side the Lord is near;

The Lord my help­er

I shall win

The vic­to­ry o’er the hosts of sin.

Who put their trust in God most high

On ev­er­last­ing strength re­ly;

Their con­fi­dence shall pass away

Who make the arm of flesh their stay.
