Verse One – Psalm 36:5-6
Your steadfast Love, O Lord,
Extends to highest heaven!
Your faithfulness, O Lord,
As billowed clouds is given!
Your righteousness, O Lord,
Soar as the mountain’s peak!
Your judgments true, O Lord,
Are oceans vast and deep!


Verse Two – Psalm 36:7-8
Your precious love, we sing!
Your people’s haven, ever!
Beneath Your shadowed wing
We find a home forever!
We feast on all that’s good,
And drink Your water pure,
You give abundant food,
Your love is swift and sure!


Verse Three – Psalm 36:8b-9
This day, we all rejoice,
Your love will fail us, never!
Your rivers of delights
Like fountains, flow forever!
For You are God today,
As always You have been,
And You our God shall be,
forevermore, Amen!
