1 God's mercies I will ever sing;and with my mouth I shallThy faithfulness make to be knownto generations all.
2 For mercy shall be built, said I,for ever to endure;Thy faithfulness, ev'n in the heav'ns,thou wilt establish sure.
3 I with my chosen One have madea cov'nant graciously;And to my servant, whom I lov'd,to David sworn have I;
4 That I thy seed establish shallfor ever to remain,And will to generations allthy throne build and maintain.
