Chorus
O Lord God, God of hosts
Who is strong like you?
Who like to you faithful
Great in glory too?
I will sing of mercies
Of the Lord for e\'er
With my mouth will make known
Generations share
In His faithfulness sure
Mercy shall be built
Built for ever, this your word
None can hinder, stilt - Chorus
He a covenant made
With His chosen one
David , he His servant
Christ, His only Son
David\'s seed for ever
Would established be
Built up his throne would sure
Be for evermore - Chorus
The heavens shall thus praise
Your wonders, Lord, true
And your faithfulness sing
Congregation too
For who in the heaven
To the Lord compares?
Who among the people strong
His same glory shares? - Chorus
God, greatly to be feared
When saints gather near
And be had in reverence
Of those round Him here
Rage of seas you rule o\'er
When the waves arise
You do then quiet still them
Each one do down-size - Chorus
And enemy peoples
You have broken, slain
They be gone and scattered
None [be]\'fore you remain
Your strong arm has lightened
Descended with power
Triumphant your victory
\'Tis seen every hour - Chorus
