Lyrics

What shall I render to the Lord
For all his benefits to me?
How shall my life, by grace restored,
Give worthy thanks, O Lord, to thee?

Salvation's cup of blessing now
I take and call upon God's name.
Before his saints I pay my vow
And here my gratitude proclaim.

His saints the Lord delights to save;
Their death is precious in his sight.
He has redeemed me from the grave,
And in his service I delight.

With thankful heart I offer now
My gift and call upon God's name.
Before his saints I pay my vow
And here my gratitude proclaim.

Within his house, the house of prayer,
I dedicate myself to God.
Let all his saints his grace declare
And join to sound his praise abroad.
