As long as the sun blazes and burns Your mercies will never fail As long as the seed time and harvest endure Your mercies will never fail
And when my soul is downcast within Your compassions have no end
Though the arrows pierce me Though the darkness rages fiercely You will be my strength Though the earth gives way My portion You will ever be
In fear or in faith I’ll say to my soul Your mercies will never fail A promise for ages An anchor that holds Your mercies will never fail
And when my soul is downcast within Your compassions have no end
Though the arrows pierce me Though the darkness rages fiercely You will be my strength Though the earth gives way My portion You will ever be
It’s all because of the Lord’s great love All because of the Lord’s great love It’s all because of the Lord’s great love We are not consumed
It’s all because of the Lord’s great love All because of the Lord’s great love It’s all because of the Lord’s great love His mercies are ever new
Though the arrows pierce me Though the darkness rages fiercely You will be my strength Though the earth gives way My portion You will ever be My portion You will ever be
