Now Thank We All Our God (Nun danket alle Gott)

“Now Thank We All Our God” (“Nun danket alle Gott”) stands among the most enduring hymns of gratitude in Christian history. Written around 1636 by the German pastor Martin Rinkart, who composed it during the devastation of the Thirty Years’ War, the hymn was later translated into English by Catherine Winkworth in 1856. The melody—majestic and timeless—was composed by Johann Crüger and harmonized by Johann Sebastian Bach, creating one of the great cornerstones of church music.

Rooted in the spirit of 1 Thessalonians 5:18 — “In everything give thanks” — the hymn is a radiant expression of faith and perseverance in the face of hardship. Its message of gratitude transcends language, culture, and time.

In this inspired reimagining, Master Tc brings “Now Thank We All Our God” to life through a warm reggae rhythm, blending island soul with sacred tradition. With steady grooves, earthy harmonies, and touches of the original German text, this version celebrates thanksgiving as both a prayer and a praise—joyful, heartfelt, and full of light.

“Now Thank We All Our God” (“Nun danket alle Gott”)
[Verse 1]
Now thank we all our God,
with heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done,
in Whom this world rejoices;
Who from our mothers’ arms
has blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.

[Verse 2]
O may this bounteous God
through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace,
and guide us when perplexed;
And free us from all ills,
in this world and the next!

[Verse 3]
Nun danket alle Gott
mit Herzen, Mund und Händen,
der große Dinge tut
an uns und allen Enden,
der uns von Mutterleib
und Kindesbeinen an
unzählig viel zu gut
bis hierher hat getan.

[Verse 4]
All praise and thanks to God
the Father now be given;
The Son and Him Who reigns
with Them in highest Heaven;
The one eternal God,
whom earth and Heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore.

[Verse 5]
Now thank we all our God,
with heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done,
in Whom this world rejoices;
The one eternal God,
whom earth and Heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore
