Words

Magnify Jehovah's name;For his mercies, ever sure,From eternity the same,To eternity endure.

Let his ransomed flock rejoice,Gathered out of every landAs the people of his choice,Plucked from the destroyer's hand.

To the Lord their God they cry;He inclines a gracious ear,Sends deliverance from on high,Rescues them from all their fear.

O that men would praise the LordFor his goodness to their race!For the wonders of his word,And the riches of his grace!
