1. Praise God, for he is good: for stillhis mercies lasting be.
2. Let God's redeem'd say so, whom hefrom th' en'my's hand did free;
3. And gather'd them out of the lands,from north, south, east, nd west.
4. They stray'd in desert's pathless way,no city found to rest.
5. For thirst and hunger in them faints
6. their soul. When straits them press,They cry unto the Lord,and he them frees from their distress.
7. Them also in a way to walkthat right is he did guide,That they might to a city go,wherein they might abide.
