O blessed God to thee I raise
My voice in thankful hymns of praise;
And when my voice shall silent be,
My silence shall be praise to thee.
For voice and silence doth impart
The filial homage of my heart;
And both alike are understood
By thee, thou Parent of all good—
Whose grace is all unsearchable,
Whose care for me no tongue can tell,
Who loves my loudest praise to hear,
And loves to bless my voiceless prayer.
