I Will Sing Of The Mercies Of The Lord

by Charles Walker Ray

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord,
All his goodness I will hasten to proclaim;
I will sing of the promise of his word,
And tell his pow'r and fame.

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord,
Praise forever shall my heart and tongue employ;
Holy angels shall join with one accord
The song of grateful joy.

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord,
Who input doth each stain of guilt remove;
Evermore his precious name adored
For his forgiving love.

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord,
Whose compassion will my ev'ry want supply;
He will ever each needful grace afford,
And bring me safe on high.

Chorus

I will sing his praise forever,
While I tread this vale of tears;
Naught from him my soul shall sever,
He hath banished all my fears.
