God of eternal Love

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P106b (1766) Topics: Communion with Saints Lyrics: 1 God of eternal Love, How fickle are our Ways! And yet how oft did Isr'el prove Thy constancy of Grace! 2 They saw thy Wonders wrought, And then thy Praise they sung; But soon thy Works of Pow'r forgot, And murmur'd with their Tongue. 3 Now they believe his Word While Rocks with Rivers flow; Now with their Lusts provoke the Lord, And he reduc'd them low. 4 Yet when they mourn'd their Faults, He hearken'd to their Groans, Brought his own Cov'nant to his Thoughts, And call'd 'em still his Sons. 5 Their Names were in his Book, He sav'd 'em from their Foes: Oft he chastis'd, but ne'er forsook The People that he chose. 6 Let Isr'el bless the Lord, Who lov'd their ancient Race: And Christians join the solemn Word, Amen, to all the Praise. Scripture: Psalm 106:43-48 Languages: English
