EN 1909 My Soul, Inspired with Sacred Love

Ps.146.1

Versi Version 1

1

My soul, inspired with sacred love,

The Lord thy God delight to praise;

His gifts I will for Him improve,

To Him devote my happy days;

To Him my thanks and praises give,

And only for His glory live.

2

Long as my God shall lend me breath,

My every pulse shall beat for Him;

And when my voice is lost in death,

My spirit shall resume the theme.

The gracious theme, for ever new,

Through all eternity pursue.

3

Soon as the breath of man expires,

Again he to his earth shall turn;

Where then are all his vain desires,

His love and hate, esteem and scorn?

All, all at that last gasp are o’er,

He falls to rise on earth no more.

4

He, then, is blest, and only he,

Whose hope is in the Lord his God,

Who can to Him for succor flee,

That spread the earth and Heaven abroad;

That still the universe sustains,

And Lord of His creation reigns.

5

True to His everlasting Word,

He loves the injured to redress:

Poor helpless souls the bounteous Lord

Relieves, and fills with plenteousness:

He sets the mournful prisoners free,

He bids the blind their Savior see.

6

The Lord thy God, O Sion, reigns,

Supreme in mercy as in power,

The endless theme of heavenly strains,

When time and death shall be no more:

And all eternity shall prove

Too short to utter all His love.
