  1. 1When all Thy mercies, O my God,
  2. My rising soul surveys,
  3. Transported with the view I’m lost
  4. In wonder, love, and praise.
  5. 2Unnumbered comforts on my soul
  6. Thy tender care bestowed
  7. Before my infant heart conceived
  8. From whom those comforts flowed.
  9. 3When in the slipp'ry paths of youth
  10. With heedless steps I ran,
  11. Thine arm, unseen, conveyed me safe
  12. And led me up to man.
  13. 4Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
  14. My daily thanks employ;
  15. Nor is the least a cheerful heart,
  16. That tastes those gifts with joy.
  17. 5Thro' every period of my life
  18. Thy goodness I’ll pursue;
  19. And after death, in distant worlds,
  20. The glorious theme renew.
  21. 6When nature fails and day and night
  22. Divide Thy works no more,
  23. My ever-grateful heart, O Lord,
  24. Thy mercies shall adore.
  25. 7Through all eternity, to Thee
  26. A grateful song I’ll raise;
  27. But, oh! eternity’s too short
  28. To utter all Thy praise.
  29. 8Amen.
