Lyrics

Thee will I praise, O great Jehovah,
And Thy rich favor is my song!
High hast Thou me, O God, exalted,
My joyous thanks to Thee belong!
Ne'er shall I cease my praise to render
To Thee, Almightty, wise and tender.

Early, when morning's light is dawning,
My spirit lifts itself to Thee;
Late, when the shades of night are falling,
My tongue shall praise Thee joyfully.
O how I long to come before Thee,
With holy anthems to adore Thee!

To Thee, my heart is consecrated,
My life to God shall hallowed be:
To Thee, my anthems dedicated,
My everfaithful Lord, to Thee,
And, in Thy temple's holy dwelling,
My praise and thanks to Thee are swelling!

Early, when morning's glow is calling,
My spirit lifts itself to Thee;
Late, when the shades of night are falling,
My song doth praise Thee thankfully.
O what a joy to come before Thee,
With holy anthems to adore Thee!

Thee will I praise, O great Jehovah,
And Thy rich favor is my song!
High hast Thou me, O God, exalted,
My joyous thanks to Thee belong!
Ne'er shall I cease my praise to render
To Thee Almightty, Wise and Tender.

Chorus:
To Thee my harp I consecrate,
Thou art my song,
Thou art my song, Jehovah great!
