  • Verse 1

    Praise to the Lord

    the Almighty the King of creation

    O my soul praise Him

    For He is thy health and salvation

    All ye who hear

    now to His temple draw near

    Praise Him in glad adoration


    Verse 2

    Praise to the Lord

    who o'er all things

    So wondrously reigneth

    Shelters thee under His wings

    Yea so gently sustaineth

    Hast thou not seen

    how thy desires e'er have been

    Granted in what He ordaineth


    Verse 3

    Praise to the Lord

    who doth prosper

    Thy work and defend thee

    Surely His goodness and mercy

    here daily attend thee

    Ponder anew

    what the Almighty can do

    If with His love He befriend thee


    Verse 4

    Praise to the Lord
    Who When tempests
    their warfare are waging

    Who when the elements

    madly around thee are raging

    Biddeth them cease

    turneth their fury to peace

    Whirlwinds and waters assuaging


    Verse 5

    Praise to the Lord
    Who when darkness
    of sin is abounding

    Who when the godless

    do triumph

    All virtue confounding

    Sheddeth His light

    chaseth the horrors of night

    Saints with His mercy surrounding


    Verse 6

    Praise to the Lord

    O let all that is

    in me adore Him

    All that hath life and breath

    Come now with praises before Him

    Let the amen

    sound from His people again

    Gladly for all we adore Him


    Catherine Winkworth, Joachim Neander, Percy Dearmer

    Be Thou my Vision

    O Lord of my heart

    Naught be all else to me

    save that Thou art

    Thou my best thought

    by day or by night

    Waking or sleeping

    Thy presence my light

    Be Thou my Wisdom

    and Thou my true Word

    I ever with Thee and

    Thou with me Lord

    Thou my great Father

    I Thy true son

    Thou in me dwelling

    and I with Thee one


    Verse 3

    High King of heaven

    my victory won

    May I reach heaven's joys

    bright heaven's Sun

    Heart of my own heart

    whatever befall

    Still be my Vision

    O Ruler of all

  • Chorus

    Great is Thy faithfulness

    Great is Thy faithfulness

    Morning by morning

    New mercies I see

    All I have needed

    Thy hand hath provided

    Great is Thy faithfulness

    Lord unto me


    Verse 1

    Great is Thy faithfulness

    O God my Father

    There is no shadow

    Of turning with Thee

    Thou changest not

    Thy compassions they fail not

    As Thou hast been

    Thou forever wilt be


    Verse 2

    Summer and winter

    And springtime and harvest

    Sun moon and stars

    In their courses above

    Join with all nature

    In manifold witness

    To Thy great faithfulness

    Mercy and love


    Verse 3

    Pardon for sin

    And a peace that endureth

    Thy own dear presence

    To cheer and to guide

    Strength for today

    And bright hope for tomorrow

    Blessings all mine

    With ten thousand beside
