13. Lord God, All Laud to Thee

1. Lord God, all laud to Thee;
Thy goodness we are praising,
Thou hearest graciously
The prayers that we are raising;
Thou dost in faithful love,
To make and keep them whole,
Send blessings from above
For body, spirit, soul.

2. So now have we anew
Received from Thee Thy blessing;
Thou blessest all we do,
Thy Word to us addressing;
Dost bless our daily bread
To satisfy our need.
Our thanks again we’ve said
In song and word and deed.

3. Thou givest us Thy Word,
Our souls Thou truly feedest,
For this we praise Thee, Lord,
And follow where Thou leadest!
Thou givest light and strength
Upon the heavenward way,
On it Thy hand at length
Directeth us each day.

4. For all Thy faithfulness,
Our fervent thanks we sing Thee;
Thee while we live we bless,
And day by day we bring Thee
Our hearts, let them be Thine;
O Lord, Thy Spirit give,
Who as a light will shine
And show us how to live!
