Appears in 37 hymnals Topics: Faithfulness Of God; Faithfulness Of God First Line: Yet (saith the Lord) if David's race Lyrics: 1 Yet (saith the Lord) if David's race, The children of my son, Should break my laws, abuse my grace And tempt mine anger down. 2 Their sins I'll visit with the rod, And make their folly smart; But I'll not cease to be their God, Nor from my truth depart. 3 My covenant I will ne'er revoke, But keep my grace in mind; And what eternal love hath spoke, Eternal truth shall bind. 4 Once have I sworn (I need no more) And pledg'd my holiness, To seal the sacred promise sure To David and his race. 5 The sun shall see his offspring rise And spread from sea to sea, Long as he travels round the skies To give the nations day. 5 Sure as the moon that rules the night His kingdom shall endure, Till the fix'd laws of shade and light Shall be observ'd no more.
