Give thanks to GOD for all his goodness:

“His love forever is the same.”

Give thanks to GOD, O holy nation:

“His love forever is the same.”

Give thanks to GOD, O holy priesthood:

“His love forever is the same.”

Give thanks to GOD, all those who fear him:

“His love forever is the same.”[Sing to the Lord 118b]

2. Brought low, I cried to GOD; he heard me.

He answered me and set me free.

The LORD with me, no one can hurt me.

He is my strength, my victory.

Put not your confidence in princes.

When enemies against me came,

GOD’s strength provided my salvation:

“His love forever is the same.”

3. Hark! righteous and victorious singing:

“The LORD’s right hand does valiantly.”

For life restored my praises bringing:

“The LORD’s right hand does valiantly.”

When gates of righteousness stand open,

I enter and I praise GOD’s name.

This is GOD’s gate; the righteous enter.

“His love forever is the same.”

4. The stone the builders had rejectedis now the foremost cornerstone.

The LORD has done it, we have seen it –

his ways confound what we had known.

This is the day of days: GOD made it!

And we are glad, we praise his name:

“Save us and let us know your blessing.

Your love forever is the same.”

5. Our voices join in glad confession:

“GOD’s love forever is the same.”

Most blest is he in our processionwho comes triumphant in GOD’s

name.

Let branches mark the way before him,

and at the altar hail his fame.

“You are my God and I will praise you:

Your love forever is the same!”Sing to the Lord 118bReformed Church of __________ CCLI License # _____
