Give thanks to the Lord,
Because He is good;
Be in one accord,
And do as you should.
His mercy endures,
Always forever;
Because He ensures,
It will not sever.
Give thanks to the God,
The God of all gods;
Praise Him and applaud,
All others are frauds.
Give thanks to the Lord,
The Lord of all lords;
Beloved and adored,
Who will give rewards.
Give thanks to the King,
The King of all kings;
Let the church bells ring,
For the marvelous things.
Gove thanks to the One,
As God the Father;
Who gave us His Son,
To call as Brother.
He has given worth,
Giving life to you;
With Heaven and earth,
Living this life through.
God spread out the ground,
Over the waters,
Fruitful to abound,
Born sons and daughters.
God made the great lights,
Sun highest at noon;
As others rule nights,
With the stars and moon.
