"Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth" (Psalm 86:1515But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth. (Psalm 86:15)).
New every morning, those wondrous compassions,
Falt'ring not, failing not, fresh every day;
Rich and exhaustless, His goodness and mercies,
Boundless supplies for the whole pilgrim way.
Blessed Lord Jesus, we praise and adore Thee,
Worship and magnify Thy worthy Name,
For all Thy mercies and grace so abounding,
For all Thy goodness forever the same.
All through the past, we can see Thy compassions,
Daily we see them each morning anew,
Thus Thou hast promised fore'er to continue,
All through our life, Thy compassions to strew.
Limitless mercies forever abounding,
Grace and compassions each morning we see;
Bought by Him, loved by Him, never forgotten,
Kept by His goodness and mercy so free.
Oh! what a comfort it is when relying
On His compassions which never can fail;
What perfect peace it e'er gives to His people,
Trusting His mercies, whatever assail.
Lord, we would rest in Thy goodness unfailing,
Ever relying upon Thy great love;
Trust Thee each morning for Thy new compassions,
Until we meet Thee in Glory above.
"It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because HIS COMPASSIONS FAIL NOT" (Lamentations 3:2222It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. (Lamentations 3:22)).
