Now Thank We all our God
Now Thank we all our God,
With heart, and hands, and Voices,
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom the world rejoices;
Who from our mother's arms
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours to —day.
0 May this tounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His Grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.

The Father now be given,
The Son, oral Him who reigns
With them in highest heaven,
The one et,.rnal God,
Whom earth >nd heaven adore;
For thus i-, was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

In pastures green; He leadeth me
The quiet waters by.

And me to walk d oth make
Within the paths of righteousnese,
Even for Hie own name's sake.
Yea) though I walk in death's dark vale,

For chow art with me; and Thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
My table Thow halt furnished
In presence of my foes;
INiy head Thaw dolt with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.

And in God's house
