When all your mercies, O my God my thankful
[Modernised Version]1 When all your mercies, O my God,
my thankful soul surveys,
uplifted by the view, I'm lost
in wonder, love and praise.
2 Unnumbered blessings on my soul
your tender care bestowed
before my infant heart perceived
from whom these blessings flowed.
5 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
my daily thanks employ;
nor is the least a cheerful heart
that takes those gifts with joy.
6 In health and sickness, joy and pain,
your goodness I'll pursue;
and after death, in distant worlds,
the glorious theme renew.
7 Throughout eternity, O Lord,
a joyful song I'll raise;
but all eternity's too short
to utter all your praise!
