Eternal Is Your Word, O LORD
- Eternal is your word, O LORD;
in heav’n it stands forever sure.
Your truth remains thro’ ev’ry age
the earth you founded, it endures.
They stand by your decree this day,
for all things serve your sov’reign way. - Had not your law been my delight,
I would have perished in my strife.
Your precepts I will not forget;
for thro’ them you preserved my life.
LORD, rescue me, for I am yours,
and I have sought to know your word. - The wicked lie in wait for me;
destruction threatens at their hands,
but I, in spite of all their threats,
will still consider your commands.
Perfection’s limits I have found,
but your commandments have no bound.
