Praise the Lord, for He is good,
for His steadfast love endures forever.
His promises do not waver,
and His word does not fall empty upon the earth.
What He speaks, He confirms;
what He promises, He brings to pass.
No time cancels His counsel,
no man frustrates His will.
The Lord is patient and great in mercy,
slow to anger and rich in love.
He does not forsake those who hope in Him.
His love is stronger than judgment,
His grace greater than guilt.
He binds up the brokenhearted
and lifts up the downtrodden.
The Lord remembers His covenant
to a thousand generations;
He does not forget His children,
not even in their weakness.
The night lasts but a moment,
but joy comes with the morning.
For His promise stands firm
above every circumstance.
Heaven and earth shall pass away,
but the word of the Lord shall not.
His love never fails.
Blessed is he
who rests in the promise of the Lord;
for his hope is secure,
and his future certain.
