1. Thy mercy, LORD's to heaven; Thy faithfulness, the sky,
Psalm 36
In Heavenly Love Abiding
Thy mercy, LORD's to heaven;
Thy faithfulness, the sky,
Thy justice like the mountains;
Thy judgments depths defy.
LORD, man and beast Thou savest;
How precious, God, Thy grace!
Beneath Thy wing's great shadow
Men's sons their trust shall place.
(Men's sons their trust shall place.)
1-3
Words: Psalm 36:5-12 / Music: arr. from Felix Mendelssohn, Opus 59

2. They with Thy house's bounty shall be well satisfied;
Psalm 36
In Heavenly Love Abiding
They with Thy house's bounty
shall be well satisfied;
From rivers full, delightful,
Thou dost their drink provide.
Because the life-filled fountain
Is only found with Thee;
And in Thy light, the purest,
We clearly light shall see.
(We clearly light shall see.)
2-3

3. To them that know Thee, ever Thy loving-kindness show,
Psalm 36
In Heavenly Love Abiding
To them that know Thee, ever
Thy loving-kindness show,
And still on men's upright hearts
Thy righteousness bestow,
Let not the proud foot crush me,
Nor wicked hands detain,
There evil doers, thrust down
Can never rise again.
(Can never rise again.)
3-3
