1 Oh, ^agive thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His¹ mercy endures forever. ‡

2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,

3 And ^agathered out of the lands,
From the east and from the west,
From the north and from the south. ‡

4 They wandered in ^athe wilderness in a desolate way;
They found no city to dwell in. ‡
