God’s ten¤der mer¤cies are new eve¤ry morn¤ing,
Great is His faith¤ful¤ness, strong is His love;
Kind¤ly His eyes are be¤hold¤ing the right¤eous
Jour¤ney¤ing on to His King¤dom a¤bove.

God’s ten¤der mer¤cies are o¤ver the faith¤ful,
He is their shield and ex¤ceed¤ing re¤ward,
Wait¤ing to bless and to com¤fort His peo¤ple,
Read¤y to serve them– their Mas¤ter and Lord.

God’s ten¤der mer¤cy and good¤ness will fol¤low
Those who o¤be¤dient¤ly walk in His way,
Pa¤tient¤ly do¤ing His right¤eous com¤mand¤ments,
Seek¤ing a¤lone for His hon¤our and praise.

God’s ten¤der mer¤cy will fol¤low His chil¤dren
On to the end of this pil¤grim¤age life;
His pre¤cious truth is their shield and their buck¤ler;
Strong in His grace they shall win in the strife.

God’s ten¤der mer¤cy en¤dur¤eth for¤ev¤er,
Sweet is the thought to the up¤right in heart;
His pre¤cious pre¤cepts can nev¤er be bro¤ken,
His lov¤ing kind¤ness shall nev¤er de¤part.
