| | | Now Thank We All Our God |
| | | Martin Rinkart. Tr. Catherine Winkworth (1586–1649) |
| |
| |
| Now thank we all our God, | |
| With heart and hands and voices, | |
| Who wondrous things hath done, | |
| In whom his world rejoices, | |
| Who from our mothers’ arms | 5 |
| Hath blessed us on our way | |
| With countless gifts of love, | |
| And still is ours to-day. | |
| |
| O, may this bounteous God | |
| Through all our life be near us, | 10 |
| With ever joyful hearts | |
| And blessèd peace to cheer us, | |
| And keep us in his grace, | |
| And guide us when perplexed, | |
| And free us from all ills | 15 |
| In this world and the next. | |
| |
| All praise and thanks to God, | |
| The Father, now be given, | |
| The Son, and him who reigns | |
| With them in highest heaven:— | 20 |
| The One Eternal God, | |
| Whom earth and heaven adore, | |
| For thus it was, is now, | |
| And shall be evermore! | |
