The Temporary And The Eternal

orchidee



Tune: Heathlands

('Christ whose glory fills the skies')

Psalm 102 v.25-28

**********

Of old, O Lord, you have laid

Earth's foundations here displayed

The heavens, your work they be

All made by your hands, we see

They shall perish but you shall

Endure ever we know well

 

Yes, all of them shall wax old

Like a garment, it be told

As a vesture, cloak, you shall

Change them, and it shall be true

That they shall be changed, but you

O Lord shall remain strong, new

 

For you are the same, and your

Years shall have no end, 'tis sure

The children of your servants

Shall continue on from hence

And their descendants shall be

Established before you free
