Psalm 136

"His steadfast love endures forever." What a blessed refrain throughout this psalm.

Give to our God immortal praise!
Mercy and truth are all His ways;
Wonders of might to God belong—
Tell of His glory in your song:
For His mercies shall endure Ever faithful, ever sure!
 
He built the earth, He spread the sky;
He fixed the starry lights on high;
Wonders of pow'r to God belong—
Tell of His greatness in your song:
For His mercies shall endure Ever faithful, ever sure!

He sent His Son with pow'r to save
From guilt and darkness and the grave;
Wonders of love to God belong—
Tell of His mercy in your song:
For His mercies shall endure Ever faithful, ever sure!

Thro' this vain world He guides our feet
'Til we shall reach His heav'nly seat;
Wonders of grace to God belong—
Tell of His goodness in your song:
For His mercies shall endure Ever faithful, ever sure!

(Isaac Watts, alt.)
