Ever faithful, ever sure. - He the gold-tressèd sun
Caused all day his course to run:
For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure. - The horned moon to shine by night,
Mid her spangled sisters bright:
For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure. - All things living he doth feed,
His full hand supplies their need:
For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure. - Let us, with a gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord, for he is kind:
For his mercies aye endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
