GIVE thanks unto our God,
And magnify His name;
He worthy is of ceaseless praise,
Of everlasting fame.
He gave His well-beloved,
His holy, spotless Son,
To save us from our low estate,
Poor sinners―lost, undone.
O love unsearchable,
That brought Him from on high
To seek and save us, ruined ones,
And in our place to die!
His was the travail sore,
“The wormwood and the gall;”
When God laid on His spotless Son
Th’ iniquity of us all.
He now exalted sits
At God’s right hand in heaven;
A name above all other names
To Jesus now is given.
We praise, we worship Him,
Our Saviour glorified;
Who lived, who died, who rose again
To win His Church, His bride.
