25. His hand and pow'r shall reach afar;I'll set it in the sea;And his right hand establishedshall in the rivers be.
26. Thou art my Father, he shall cry,thou art my God alone;And he shall say, Thou art the Rockof my salvation.
27. I'll make him my first-born, more highthan kings of any land.
28. My love I'll ever keep for him,my cov'nant fast shall stand.
29. His seed I by my pow'r will makefor ever to endure;And, as the days of heav'n, his throneshall stable be, and sure.
30. But if his children shall forsakemy laws, and go astray,And in my judgments shall not walk,but wander from my way:
31. If they my laws break,and do not keep my commandements;
32. I'll visit then their faults with rods,their sins with chastisements.
33. Yet I'll not take my love from him,nor false my promise make.
34. My cov'nant I'll not break, nor changewhat with my mouth I spake.
35. Once by my holiness I sware,to David I'll not lie;
