P138c. Thee will I praise with all my heart

1 Thee will I praise with all my heart,
I will sing praise to thee
2 before the gods: and worship will
toward thy sanctuary.
I’ll praise thy name, even for thy truth,
and kindness of thy love;
for thou thy word hast magnified
all thy great name above.

3 Thou didst me answer in the day
when I did cry to thee;
and thou with strength my fainting soul
didst strengthen inwardly.
4 All kings upon the earth that are
shall give thee praise, O Lord:
what time they from thy mouth shall hear
thy true and faithful word.

5 Yea, in the righteous ways of God
with gladness they shall sing:
for great’s the glory of the Lord;
who is for ever king.
6 The Lord high, yet he regards
all those that lowly be;
whereas the proud and lofty ones
afar off knoweth he.

7 Though I in midst of trouble walk,
I life from thee shall have:
’gainst my foes’ wrath thou’lt stretch thine hand;
thy right hand shall me save.
8 All that which me concerns the Lord
will surely perfect make:
Lord, still thy mercy lasts; do not
thine own hands’ works forsake.
