When All Thy Mercies
  • When All Thy Mercies


When all Thy mercies O my God
My rising soul surveys
Transported with the view I’m lost 

In wonder love and praise


Unnumbered comforts to my soul

Thy tender care bestowed
Before my infant heart conceived

From Whom those comforts flowed

Through all eternity to Thee

A joyful song I’ll raise

For oh eternity’s too short

To utter all Thy praise

When worn with sickness oft hast Thou

With health renewed my face
And when in sins and sorrow sunk

Renewed my soul with grace

Ten thousand thousand precious gifts

My daily thanks employ
Nor is the least a cheerful heart

That tastes those gifts with joy

Through all eternity to Thee

A joyful song I’ll raise

For oh eternity’s too short

To utter all Thy praise

Through every period of my life

Thy goodness I’ll pursue
And after death in distant worlds
The glorious theme renew

Through all eternity to Thee

A joyful song I’ll raise

For oh eternity’s too short

To utter all Thy praise
