MY song for ever shall record The tender mercies of the Lord; Thy faithfulness will I proclaim, And every age shall know Thy name.
I sing of mercies that endure, For ever builded firm and sure, Of faithfulness that never dies, Established changeless in the skies.
Behold God’s Truth and grace displayed, For He has faithful covenant made, And sworn that David’s greater Son Shall ever sit upon His throne.
Who in the heavenly dwellings fair Can with the Lord Himself compare? Or who among the mighty shares The likeness that our Saviour bears?
God’s promise is for ever sure, The Saviour’s people shall endure; His throne for ever firm shall stay When sun and moon have passed away.
The Psalter, 1912
