Nathan Clark George - Psalm 73: O God How Good Thou Art

from Praise Your Maker (2020) by Gregory Wilbur

lyrics

O God How Good Thou Art—Psalm 73
Text: Anonymous based on Psalm 73; Music: Gregory Wilbur, 2012.

O God, how good Thou art To all the pure of heart,
Though life seems vain;
Burdened with anxious care, I groped in dark despair,
Till in Thy house of prayer
All was made plain.

Ever, O Lord, with Thee, All shall be well with me,
Held by Thy hand;
And Thou wilt guide my feet By Thy own counsel sweet,
Till I, for glory meet,
In glory stand.

In earth or heaven above Who is there that I love
Compared with Thee?
My heart may faint with fears, But God my strength appears,
And will to endless years
My portion be.

O it is good that I May still to God draw nigh,
As oft before;
The Lord Jehovah blest, My refuge and my rest,
Shall be in praise confessed
For evermore.
