Verse 1: Praise God for love and mercy, And grace giv’n in our Lord. He washed and sanctified me With Jesus’ precious blood.
Verse 2: Praise God for He is faithful His promises are sure. He knows when I am tempted , He strives to keep me pure.
Verse 3: Praise Gog for all His bounty: His blessing from above: My life, my health, my hope and joy, He gives me all His love.
Chorus: My God is for ever near me, He chastens, guides, and cheers me; And tho’ this earth I now must roam, He’ll lead me safely home.
