There’s no pause in Your reach,
No uncertainty in Your grasp.
You always answer me
Though I sometimes never ask.
There is shelter in Your shadow-wing,
And oh! I love to say
That Your lovingkindness will never pass away –
Will never pass away.
I have put my trust in You –
In the strength of Your right hand
That some will rise against,
And to their folly will not stand.
For mercy’s in Your left hand,
Salvation’s in Your right,
And Your Lovingkindness will be mentioned in the night –
Every morning and every night.
Your gift is better than my life.
With Your cords I have been drawn –
Of life and light are formed
And with death they’ll not be gone.
For You will raise me up again
With power for all to see.
And Your Lovingkindness will ever be toward me –
Will ever be toward me.
