Precious Blessings

Fanny Crosby • English

Primary Scripture: Ezekiel 34:26

Verse 1

O the blessings we receive, When on Jesus we believe, And are walking in the Spirit day by day; When His word is our delight, And our path is growing bright, While by faith we learn to trust Him and obey.

Chorus

O praise the Lord, for He is good; O praise the Lord, our God above, For He keeps us every hour, And upholds us by His pow’r, While we dwell within the sunshine of His love.

Verse 2

Precious blessings shall descend, When before His throne we bend, And the glory-cloud is resting o’er us there; Every heart with joy is fill’d, Every wave of sorrow still’d, While we feel the hallow’d bliss of answer’d pray’r.

Chorus

O praise the Lord, for He is good; O praise the Lord, our God above, For He keeps us every hour, And upholds us by His pow’r, While we dwell within the sunshine of His love.

Verse 3

When the world is overcome, And its battles fought and won, When we see our Lord and Saviour in the sky; How our hearts will overflow, With the rapture we shall know, When we meet Him in His kingdom by and by.

Chorus

O praise the Lord, for He is good; O praise the Lord, our God above, For He keeps us every hour, And upholds us by His pow’r, While we dwell within the sunshine of His love.
