Lyrics

Now bless­èd be the Lord our God,
The God of Is­ra­el.
For He alone doth won­drous works
In glo­ry that ex­cel.

His wide do­min­ion shall ex­tend
From sea to shin­ing sea,
And un­to earth’s re­mot­est bounds
His peace­ful rule shall be.

Yea, all the kings shall bow to Him,
His rule all na­tions hail;
He will re­gard the poor man’s cry
When oth­er help­ers fail.

And bless­èd be His glo­ri­ous name
To all eter­ni­ty;
The whole earth let His glo­ry fill,
Amen, so let it be.
