Now Thank We All Our God

Now thank we all our God,

With heart and hands and voices,

Who wondrous things hath done,

In whom his world rejoices,

Who from our mothers’ arms

Hath blessed us on our way

With countless gifts of love,

And still is ours to-day.

O, may this bounteous God

Through all our life be near us,

With ever joyful hearts

And blessèd peace to cheer us,

And keep us in his grace,

And guide us when perplexed,

And free us from all ills

In this world and the next.

All praise and thanks to God,

The Father, now be given,

The Son, and him who reigns

With them in highest heaven:—

The One Eternal God,

Whom earth and heaven adore,

For thus it was, is now,

And shall be evermore!
