487. Praise, O praise our God and King

1 Praise, O praise our God and King;
Hymns of adoration sing;
For His mercies still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

2 Praise Him that He made the sun
Day by day his course to run;
For His mercies still endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

3 Praise Him that He gave the rain
To mature the swelling grain,
And hath bid the fruitful field
Crops of precious increase yield.

4 Praise Him for our harvest-store,--
He hath filled the garner-floor,--
And for richer food than this,
Pledge of everlasting bliss.

5 Glory to our bounteous King!
Glory let creation sing!
Glory to the Father, Son,
And Blest Spirit, Three in One!

Amen.
