Give to Our God Immortal Praise

Words: Isaac Watts · Music: Francis Duckworth · 1719

Verse 1
Give to our God immortal praise;
mercy and truth are all his ways;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.

Verse 2
Give to the Lord of lords renown,
the King of kings with glory crown;
his mercies ever shall endure,
when lords and kings are known no more.

Verse 3
He built the earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.

Verse 4
He fills the sun with morning light,
he bids the moon direct the night;
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.

Verse 5
The Jews he freed from Pharaoh's hand
and brought them to the promised land;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.

Verse 6
He saw the Gentiles dead in sin
and felt his pity move within;
his mercies ever shall endure,
when death and sin shall reign no more.

Verse 7
He sent his Son with pow'r to save
from guilt, and darkness, and the grave;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.

Verse 8
Through this vain world he guides our feet
and leads us to his heav'nly seat;
his mercies ever shall endure,
when this vain world shall be no more.
