376. Enduring Mercy

1 Praise Jehovah for His love,
God of gods, enthroned above;
Praise the mighty King of kings,
Who alone doth wondrous things;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

2 God by wisdom framed the skies,
Made the earth from ocean rise,
Gave the sun by day for light,
Moon and stars to rule the night;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

3 He made Egypt's greatness vain,
Caused their firstborn to be slain,
Bro't forth Israel from their land,
Stretching out His mighty hand;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

4 God the sea asunder clave,
Bro't His people thro' the wave,
Drowned their foes beneath the deep,
Thro' the desert lead His sheep;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

5 Mighty kings of mighty name
He destroyed and put to shame,
Made their land a heritage
Fro His saints from age to age;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

6 God remembered all our woe,
Rescued us from every foe,
Food to all doth He supply,
Praise the Lord enthroned on high;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
