…the goodness of God endureth continually.
—Psalm 52:1 kjv—
Whene’er I tred the highway
Or pass through leafy wood,
Methinks I hear a murmur,
“God is ever good!”
He careth for the songsters
And daily gives them food;
I think I hear them singing,
“God is ever good!”
To earth He sent the Savior
(We wonder how He could)
To bear our sins and sorrows;
God is ever good.
Whene’er I count my blessings
And thank Him as I should,
My soul cries out in rapture,
“God is ever good!”
Whene’er I pass through trials,
And trust Him as I should,
My heart is filled with glory:
God is ever good.
When I have crossed the River,
And on the Shore have stood,
I still shall sing His praises—
“God is ever good!”
