Give thanks to God, the Lord of all creation's wonders
1 Give thanks to God, the Lord of all
creation's wonders, great and small,
whose love endures for ever:
he gave the splendour of the earth,
the birth of spring, the winter's death
his love endures for ever.
2 And to the joy of human eye
beyond the earth he set the sky
his love endures for ever:
he blessed the darkness with the light,
the sun by day, the stars by night
his love endures for ever.
3 And from oppression's evil spell
he led his people Israel
his love endures for ever:
through sea and desert, pain and fear
their strength was his, for he was near
his love endures for ever.
4 Give thanks to God, the God of all,
for he is good, he hears our call,
his love endures for ever:
our God is from eternity,
he lifts and feeds us, sets us free
his love endures for ever.
After Psalm 136, Paul Wigmore (born 1925)
