Saw You Never in the Twilight?

Little children, wake and listen

Psalm 113

Bless the Lord, O saints and servants,
praise the might of God's great name;
ageless, matchless, filled with wonder,
yesterday, today, the same.
When the dawn receives the sunrise
till the night returns its rays,
shall the glory of God's goodness
be the theme of all our praise.
