Sweet Is the Work, My God, My King
Sweet Is the Work, My God, My King
1. Sweet is the work, my God, my King,To praise thy name, give thanks and sing;To show thy love by morning light,And talk of all thy truths at night.
2. My heart shall triumph in my LordAnd bless his works and bless his word;Thy works of grace, how bright they shine,How deep thy counsels, how divine!
3. But, oh, what triumph shall I raiseTo thy dear name, through endless daysWhen in the realms of joy I seeThy face in full felicity!
4. Then shall I see and hear and knowAll I desired and wished below,And ev’ry pow’r find sweet employIn that eternal world of joy.
