Psalms 89:1-7 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

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.

5. The praises of thy wonders, Lord,the heavens shall express;And in the congregationof saints thy faithfulness.

6. For who in heaven with the Lordmay once himself compare?Who is like God among the sonsof those that mighty are?

7. Great fear in meeting of the saintsis due unto the Lord;And he of all about him shouldwith rev'rence be ador'd.
