Text by Martin Rinkart, 1636
Now thank we all our God
with heart and hands and voices.
Who wondrous things has done
In whom this world rejoices.
Who from our mothers’ arms
has blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.
Now thank we all our God.
O may this bounteous God
through all our lives be near us
with ever joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us.
And keep us in His grace,
and guide us when perplexed,
and free us from all ills,
in this world and the next.
Now thank we all our God.
All praise and thanks to God,
the Father, now be given;
the Son, and him who reigns
with them in highest heaven.
The one eternal God,
whom earth and heaven adore:
For thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore.
