Presence Promises

Tune: Camberwell

('At the name of Jesus')

Psalm 89 v.11-18

********

The heavens Lord are yours

Endless, countless stores

The earth is yours also

This we sure of, know

The world and is fulness

You founded, you bless

Hills, mounts, vales, you them made

They firm, solid, staid

 

Mighty is your arm, strong

Prevails all day long

Judgement, justice, they be

Habitation, see

Of your throne, and mercy

Too with truth shall be

Going before your face

Where you go, each place

 

Blessed are they who do know

The joyful sound, so

They do praise and worship

You in deed and lip

And such, Lord, they shall walk

In your ways, and talk

Of you, and the light sense

Of your countenance

 

In your name they shall sure

Rejoice evermore

And in your righteousness

Be exalted, yes

For you are the glory

Of their strength, so be

And in your grace, favour

That strength [on] us confer

 

For the Lord our defence

Is, and here from hence

He the Holy One is

Of Israel, this

We have an assurance

Unto penitents

You great God o'er all things 

Unto you all sings

    A hymn of praise to the most high. It brings many Sunday memories.

        Thanks Teddy. Yep, KP's presence - she hangs around like a bad apple or penny? More like - bad smell! lol.

          A ghastly presence, a horrific apparition, unspeakable horror - I wish it was an apparition, but it's real. She's there in the flesh - in the botox! lol. She will melt if she has your 40C heat - turn to a lump of lard. She's doing a film: 'Invasion of the Killer Trouts'. lol.
