A Song of Thanksgiving+

1God, be merciful to us and bless us;

look on us with kindness,

2so that the whole world may know your will;

so that all nations may know your salvation.

3May the peoples praise you, O God;

may all the peoples praise you!

4May the nations be glad and sing for joy,

because you judge the peoples with justice

and guide every nation on earth.

5May the peoples praise you, O God;

may all the peoples praise you!

6The land has produced its harvest;

God, our God, has blessed us.

7God has blessed us;

may all people everywhere honor him.
