 1  How good it is to thank the Lord,
    and to Thy name our praises sing;
    And to proclaim Thy steadfast love each day,
    and declare Thy faithfulness by night.
    Sing to the music of the lute,
    and with a solemn sound upon the lyre;
    For Thy works have made me glad, O Lord,
    And of Thy deeds will I sing!

 2  Great are Thy works Eternal Lord;
    deep are Thy thoughts, O Thou Most High;
    Fools and senseless me will never
    know nor understand Thy ways.
    Though the wicked sprout as grass,
    and evil doers flourish for awhile;
    They shall all be rooted and destroyed,
    while Thou art evermore supreme!

 3  Good men shall flourish like the palm,
    strong as a cedar shall they be;
    For they are planted in God's house
    and they shall grow within His courts;
    Even in age shall they bear fruit,
    rich and green they ever shall be;
    For our God is faithful evermore,
    our Rock and righteous God.
