136b | Psalms of Grace#136c | 137a |
1 Praise Jehovah for His love,
God of gods, enthroned above;
Praise the mighty King of kings,
Who alone doth wondrous things;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
2 God by wisdom framed the skies,
Made the earth from ocean rise,
Gave the sun by day for light,
Moon and stars to rule the night;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
3 He made Egypt's greatness vain,
Caused their first-born to be slain,
Brought forth Israel from their land,
Stretching forth out His mighty hand;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
4 God the sea asunder clave,
Brought His people through the wave,
Drowned their foes beneath the deep,
Through the desert lead His sheep;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
5 Mighty kings of mighty name
He destroyed and put to shame,
Made their land a heritage
For His saints from age to age;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
6 God remembered all our woe,
Rescued us from every foe,
Food to all does He supply,
Praise the LORD enthroned on high;
For His mercy does endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
