Text:To Thee, O God, We Render Thanks
Tune:ST. AGNES
Composer:Rev. John B. Dykes

151. To Thee, O God, We Render Thanks

1 To Thee, O God, we render thanks,
To Thee give thanks sincere,
Because Thy wondrous works declare
That Thou art ever near.

2 Thy righteous judgment, Thou hast said,
Shall in due time appear,
And Thou Who didst establish it
Wilt fill the earth with fear.

3 Thou teachest meekness to the proud,
And makest sinners know
That none is Judge but God alone,
To honor or bring low.

4 Jehovah holds a cup of wrath,
And holds it not in vain,
For all the wicked of the earth
Its bitter dregs shall drain.

5 The God of Israel I will praise
And all His glory show;
The righteous He will high exalt
And bring the wicked low.
