NOW in a song of grateful praise,
To my dear Lord my voice I'll raise
With all the saints I'll join to tell,
My Jesus has done all things well.
2. All worlds his glorious pow'r confess;
His wisdom all his words express;
But ! his love what tongue can tell,
My Jesus has done all things well.
3. How sov'reign, merciful and free,
Has been his love to sinful me!
He pluck'd me from the jaws of hell,
My Jesus has done all things well.
4. I spurn'd his grace, I broke his laws
And then he undertook my cause:
To save me though I did rebel,
My Jeses has done all things well.
5. And since my soul has known his love,
What blessings hath he made me prove!
Mercy which doth all praise excel,
My Jesus has done all things well.
6. Whene'er my Saviour or my God,
Hath on me laid his gentle rod;
