Tune: Nativity
(\'Come, let us join our cheerful songs\')
Psalm 36 v.5-10
********
Your mercy, Lord, in heavens is
And too your faithfulness
Reaches unto th clouds, it high
Yet you to us are nigh
Your righteousness like great mountains
You make waters, fountains
Your judgement they are like great deep
You do your people keep
O Lord, you preserve man and beast
From greatest unto least
How excellent, you loving, kind
In you we sure do find
Therefore we people put our trust
In you, though we mere dust
We trust in shadow of your wings
To you each joyful sings
They shall abundant, satisfied [be]
With what you give, provide
You shall make them drink the river
Of your pleasures ever
For with you is of life the fount
Blessings more than we count
Are ours, and in your pure true light
Shall we see light, ne\'er night
O continue loving-kindness
To those that know you, bless
Them, and still your righteousness be
To [the] upright in heart free
