Tune: Ever Faithful

('Let us with a gladsome mind')

Psalm 89 v.1 and v.13-18

*********

You, LORD, have a mighty arm

Strong you hand, keeps us from harm

 

Chorus

I will sing His mercies e'er

Them with generations share

 

Justice and judgement they be

Foundation of your throne, see - Chorus

 

Mercy, truth, loving-kindness

We praise too your faithfulness - Chorus

 

Blessed they that know joyful sounds

Worship that to you abounds - Chorus

 

We sahll walk, O LORD, in you

Light, comes from your presence pure - Chorus

 

In your name shall we rejoice

Say, You are righteous with one voice - Chorus

 

You of our strength the glory

In your favour our strength be - Chorus

 

For the LORD is our defence

The Holy One, our King hence - Chorus
