I Thank the Lord My Maker

Thomas MacKellar (1844) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 107:22

Verse 1

I thank the Lord my Maker For all His gifts to me; For making me partaker Of bounties rich and free; For father and for mother, Who give me clothes and food, For sister and for brother, And all the kind and good.

Verse 2

I thank the Lord my Saviour Who came for me to do die, And bless me with his favor, And fit me for the sky,— That all my sins out-blotted, By Jesus washed away, I may be found unspotted When comes the final day.

Verse 3

I thank Lord for giving The Spirit of His grace, That I may serve him living, And dying, reach the place Where Jesus in His glory I shall forever see, And tell the wondrous story Of all His love for me.
