Poem Words (four verses)
1.
When all your mercies, O my God,
My waking soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise.
My waking soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise.
2.
Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the least a cheerful heart
That tastes those gifts with joy.
My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the least a cheerful heart
That tastes those gifts with joy.
3.
Through ev'ry passing phase of life
Your goodness I'll pursue,
And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
Your goodness I'll pursue,
And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
4.
Through all eternity, to you
A joyful song I'll raise;
But, oh, eternity's too short
To utter all your praise!
A joyful song I'll raise;
But, oh, eternity's too short
To utter all your praise!
