Your steadfast love, O Lord,
Extends up to Heaven;
Your faithfulness adored,
From all that is given.
Faithfulness to the clouds,
Righteousness like mountains;
Your judgment on the crowds,
Just like flowing fountains.
Your judgment is so deep,
Of man and beast You save;
Rescuing from their sleep,
Within their bedded grave.
How precious is Your love,
Steadfast love to mankind;
Shadowed from wings above,
A solace to the mind.
They feast on abundance,
You nourish them to drink;
Cancelling redundance;
So they can clearly think.
Your river of pleasure,
Has given such delight;
Such love without measure,
That is giving insight.
For the fountain of life,
Helping to see the light;
For enduring the strife,
Showers through day and night.
Continue steadfast love,
Unto those who know You;
Your righteousness thereof,
Upright of heart so true.
Let not the foot of pride,
To attack against me;
Make wickedness subside,
So we no longer see.
Evildoers make fall,
Thrusted down not to rise;
Blocking them not to crawl,
Rid them of their disguise.
