116 (4) | Psalm 116 Version 4 (from v 12) | CM | |
WHAT shall I render to my God, For all His kindness shown? My feet shall visit Thine abode, My songs address Thy throne. |
|||
2 | Among the saints that fill Thy house, My offerings shall be paid: There shall my zeal perform the vows My soul in anguish made. |
||
3 | How much is mercy Thy delight, Thou ever-blessèd God! How dear Thy servants in Thy sight! How precious is their blood! |
||
4 | How happy all Thy servants are! How great Thy grace to me! My life, which Thou hast made Thy care, Lord, I devote to Thee. |
||
5 | Now I am Thine, for ever Thine, Nor shall my purpose move! Thy hand has loosed my bands of pain, And bound me with Thy love. |
||
Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 |
