Lord, Your Love Reaches to the Heavens (Psalm 36)


words: Gary Hicks (10.04.10)

tune: traditional French
“Bring the Torch, Jeannette, Isabella” 

Lord, Your love reaches to the heavens,
Lord, Your faithfulness to the skies
Righteousness like mighty mountains
Justice like ocean depths surround us,
Ah, Ah, unfailing love so precious
Ah, Ah, unfailing love so kind.

Sin will whisper to the wicked
Deep within their blinded hearts
They refuse to act with wisdom
They will not turn from evil pathways
Ah, Ah, plotting to trap the righteous
Ah, Ah, plotting to trap us all.

Lord, You care for Your creation
We are sheltered under Your wings
We will feed from Your abundance
Drink from Your river so delightful
Ah, Ah, You are the fount of mercy
Ah, Ah, You are the fount of life!

Lord, Your love reaches to the heavens,
Lord, Your faithfulness to the skies
Righteousness like mighty mountains
Justice like ocean depths surround us,
Ah, Ah, unfailing love so precious
Ah, Ah, unfailing love so kind.
