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.
