My hymn of praise

MY HYMN OF PRAISE SHALL BE ‘FOR EVER JESUS’,
my firm foundation in shifting sands;
my strength and hope through many fears and failures,
the disappointments of the past—
his constant love has held me fast.

So, for all my days I will sing my praise
to the King for ever, Jesus.
Though the storms may rage. he is strong to save—
he’s the King for ever, Jesus!

2. My song of joy shall be ‘For ever Jesus’
who bore the suffering, who made a way;
his life a gift, his death a precious ransom
that wipes the sinner’s guilt away,
and turns our night to glorious day!

So, for all my days…

3. My final breath shall be, ‘For ever Jesus’,
when shadows lengthen before my eyes;
my Lord and friend, companion through the valley;
when dearest ones are left behind,
his hand will lead me to the light.

So, for all my days…

When I meet his gaze I will sing my praise
to the King for ever, Jesus.
All my sorrows past, I am home at last
with my King for ever, Jesus;
with my King for ever, Jesus;
with my King for ever, Jesus!
