O Magnify the Lord with me

O Magnify the Lord with me,
Ye people of His choice!
Let all to whom He lendeth breath
Now in His name rejoice,
For love’s blest revelation,
For rest from condemnation,
For uttermost salvation,
To Him give thanks.

 Let all …the people praise Thee,
 Let all …the people praise Thee!
 Let all …the people praise Thy name
 For ever and for evermore
 Let all …the people praise Thee
 Let all …the people praise Thee
 Let all …the people praise Thy name
For ever and for ever more.

O praise Him for His holiness,
His wisdom and His grace,
Sing praises for the precious blood
Which ransom’d all our race;
In tenderness He sought us,
From depths of sin He brought us,
The way of life then taught us,
To Him give thanks.

Had I a thousand tongues to sing,
The half could ne’er be told
Of love so rich, so full and free,
Of blessings manifold;
Of grace that faileth never,
Peace flowing as a river
From God the glorious Giver,
To Him give thanks.
 
Amen.
