O give thanks unto the Lord,
Praising Him with your whole heart;
Sing praises in one accord,
From your lips that you impart.
Bow down in His holy church,
Giving thanks unto His name;
His steadfast love that you search,
His faithfulness to proclaim.
One day I called, He answered
My strength of soul had increased;
Since I abide by His Word,
Because my faith has not ceased.
All earthly kings shall give praise,
Giving thanks unto the Lord;
Praising Him all nights and days,
For everything they afford.
They shall sing ways of the Lord,
For all of His great glory;
Proclaims not to be ignored,
Of His scriptural story.
Even though the Lord is high,
He has respect for the meek;
But the boastful that defy,
Hates hauteur what they speak.
Though I walk amid trouble,
The Lord will preserve my life;
So I don’t trip and stumble,
Guiding away from the strife.
The Lord fulfills His intent,
Because of His steadfast love;
Enduring through the torment,
That Satan causes thereof.
