Our feet have wandered, wandered far and wide, -- @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 From that strait path in which the Master died, -- @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 Low have we fallen from our high estate, Long have we lingered, lingered long and late; @3But the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever!@1 There is no sin His Love can not forgive; -- @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 No soul so stained His Love will not receive; @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 No load of sorrow but His touch can move, No hedge of thorns that can withstand His Love; @3For the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever!@1 So we will sing, whatever may betide; -- @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 Nought but ourselves can keep us from His side; -- @3His mercy endureth for ever!@1 What though no place we win in life's rough race, Our loss may prove the measure of His grace. @3For the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever!@1 | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A PASTORAL DIALOGUE: SHEPHERD, NYMPH, CHORUS by THOMAS CAREW THOSE VARIOUS SCALPELS by MARIANNE MOORE SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 20 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THERE WAS A CHILD WENT FORTH by WALT WHITMAN A REPLY TO AN IMITATION OF THE SECOND ODE OF HORACE by RICHARD BENTLEY THE MANX WITCH; A STORY OF THE LAXDALE MINES by THOMAS EDWARD BROWN SONG OF THE GREEKS by THOMAS CAMPBELL |
