Let Children Hear the Mighty Deeds: hymn by Isaac Watts

¹Let children hear the mighty deeds,
Which God perform'd of old,
Which in our younger years we saw,
And which our fathers told.

²He bids us make his glories known,
His works of power and grace;
And we'll convey his wonders down
Thro' every rising race.

³Our lips shall tell them to our Sons,
And they again to theirs,
That generations yet unborn
May teach them to their heirs.

⁴Thus shall they learn in God alone
Their hope securely stands,
That they may ne'er forget his works,
But practise his commands.
