I‟ll praise my Maker

• • I‟ll praise my Maker while I‟ve breath, 
  • and when my voice is lost in death, 
  • praise shall employ my nobler powers; 
  • my days of praise shall ne‟er be past, 
  • while life, and thought, and being last, 
  • or immortality endures. 
  • 
    
  • Happy the man whose hopes rely 
  • on Israel‟s God! He made the sky, 
  • and earth, and seas, with all their train: 
  • His truth for ever stands secure; 
  • He saves the oppressed, He feeds the poor, 
  • and none shall find His promise vain. 
  • 
    
  • The Lord gives eyesight to the blind; 
  • the Lord supports the fainting mind; 
  • He sends the labouring conscience peace; 
  • He helps the stranger in distress, 
  • the widow and the fatherless, 
  • and grants the prisoner sweet release. 
  • 
    
  • I‟ll praise Him while He lends me breath, 
  • and when my voice is lost in death, 
  • praise shall employ my nobler powers; 
  • my days of praise shall ne‟er be past, 
  • while life, and thought, and being last, 
  • or immortality endures
