let us with a gladsome mind praise the lord for he is kind  for his mercies shall endure ever faithful ever sure  let us blaze his name abroad for of gods he is the god  he with all commanding might filled the new made world with light  he the golden tressed sun caused all day his course to run  and the silver moon by night mid her spangled sisters bright  he his chosen race did bless in the wasteful wilderness  all things living he doth feed his full hand supplies their need
