R. I will never cease to sing of his love,
Tell the marvels He has done for me ! (2x)
1. On the day I call,
The Lord will answer me ;
He has heard my prayer ;
He watches over me.
2. In my darkest hour,
I called upon his name ;
God has answered me,
Stretched out his arm to save.
3. God is love and peace,
And just in all his ways ;
He protects the poor,
He lifts the lowly up.
4. Peace He gives to me,
My soul has rest in Him ;
He has kept me safe
From grief and from despair.
5. God is always here,
The Lord is at our side ;
He, the living God,
Has made his home with us.
6. How can I repay,
All God has done for me ?
He alone is God ;
He is my saving Lord.
7. I will call God’s name,
And praise his mighty deeds ;
Sing, with all my heart,
An endless song of praise !
8. In the holy place,
I offer to You, Lord ;
Songs of joy and praise,
All glory to your name.
