For Ever Shall My Song Record Lyrics

For Ever Shall My Song Record lyrics

For ever shall my song record 

The truth and mercy of the Lord; 

Mercy and truth for ever stand, 

Like heav'n, established by his hand.


2. Thus to his Son he sware, and said, 

With thee my cov'nant first
is made; 

In thee shall dying sinners live, 

Glory and grace are
thine to give. 



3. Be thou my Prophet, thou my Priest; 

Thy
children shall be ever blest; 

Thou art my chosen King: thy throne 

Shall stand eternal like my own. 

4. There's none of all my sons above


So much my image or my love; 

Celestial powers thy subjects are:


Then what can earth to thee compare? 

5. David, my servant, whom I
chose 

To guard my flock, to crush my foes, 

And raised him to the
Jewish throne, 

Was but a shadow of my Son. 



6. Now let the
church rejoice and sing 

Jesus, her Saviour and her King; 

Angels
his heav'nly wonders show, 

And saints declare his works below.
