Lyrics to the hymn, The Doxology

Mountain, road, and cars

       Introduction

Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write about hymns, instruments, recipes, and animals.

Today, we are looking at the hymn by Thomas Ken in 1674, The Doxology, a.k.a, Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow.

If you don't know how the tune goes, go look up Folksandhymns or Gabby Barrett; they both do a nice job.

Now, on with the show!

 The Lyrics

Verse 1

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye heav'nly hosts;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Amen.

         Afterwards

It is very, very short; if you are just starting with your career of hymn memorizing, (for lack of better words) start with this one.

I hope that I answered any questions that you might have had; let me know down in the comments what you thought of today's post.

I send out new content every Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and the occasional Random Chatty Day; go to past posts to read more.

Goodbye, and God bless.

Or do you want a change from the regular buttercreams? Then I have reason to believe that you will be intrigued at least, in love at most with my mother’s Ermine frosting recipe.  It requires some stove time, very little butter and it tastes good.  Just follow my instructions carefully. Trust me, you don't want flour lumps.* *I will mention this again later*                                                           ...

Lyrics to the hymn, Count Your Blessings

Trees Introduction Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write about hymns, instruments, recipes, and animals.  Today, we are looking at the lyrics to the hymn, Count Your Blessings; John Outman Jr wrote it, and it was published in 1897. It is about being content with what God has given you, and remembering all of the good things that He has done for us. If you don't know how the tune goes, look up Folksandhymns on YouTube; listening to this version helped me memorize it. Now, on with the show!

Verse 2  Are ...
