Main:

When one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord
For God is now and forever truly the Word
My Lord and Master, I pledge my allegiance to you
For you alone are the One and Only, that is True
Oh, to God be the glory, the Most High Priest
It is You, Oh Christ, that has slain the beast

Chorus:

Oh, Lord of Hosts, I pledge myself to spread Your Word
Oh, our Jesus, you are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
I say, when one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord
Oh, Hallelujah, may God be praised, for you are truly the wondrous Word

Main:

One must give up one’s self when following the Lord
To be with Christ, one must sacrifice oneself to Him
And, not follow the world’s ways and its whims
One must always put ones attention unto Him
And, to only Him, shall we sing this praising hymn
When one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord

Chorus:

Oh, Lord of Hosts, I pledge myself to spread Your Word
Oh, our Jesus, you are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
I say, when one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord
Oh, Hallelujah, may God be praised, for you are truly the wondrous Word

Main:

Be thankful to the Lord, for He is good,
As always, He guides us as He faithfully would
For He alone is the Lord Most High,
Without Him, the world would indeed give a heavy sigh
We cannot live on bread alone,
For He is definitely the Saviour sitting on the eternal throne.

Chorus:

Oh, Lord of Hosts, I pledge myself to spread Your Word
Oh, our Jesus, you are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
I say, when one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord
Oh, Hallelujah, may God be praised, for you are truly the wondrous Word

Main:

When one is thankful, be thankful to the Lord
Oh, God of Ages Past, you truly have the sword
In Your mighty Hands, I commend my spirit,
My life and my future, is in Your hands, Oh God
Your voice, Mighty King, I rightfully and faithfully hear it.
I am glad for when I fall, You indeed are always near.

Chorus:

Oh, Lord of Hosts, I pledge myself to spread Your Word
Oh, our Jesus, you are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
I say, when one is being thankful, be thankful to the Lord
Oh, Hallelujah, may God be praised, for you are truly the wondrous Word

Amen, I say, Amen
To Christ be the Glory and Honour
May we praise His Holy Name
For He is The Alpha and The Omega
The Mighty Prince of Peace
To Him, I am eternal thankful and shall give Him much praise
To Him alone, I bow down with glee, without Him, we wouldn’t be
