Let Us with a Gladsome Mind

lyricist: John Milton, 1623
Composer: John Antes, ca. 1790

Let us

with a glad­some mind

Praise the Lord

for He is kind.

For His mer­cies aye en­dure

Ever faith­ful

ev­er sure.

Let us blaze His name abroad

For of gods He is the God.

He with all com­mand­ing might

Filled the new made world with light.

He hath

with a pi­te­ous eye

Looked up­on our mi­se­ry.

He the gold­en tress­èd sun

Caused all day his course to run.

Th’hornèd moon to shine by night;

’Mid her span­gled sis­ters bright.

All things liv­ing He doth feed

His full hand sup­plies their need.

Let us

with a glad­some mind

Praise the Lord

for He is kind.
