Psalms 89:1-8

This forever-song I sing of the gentle love of God! Young and old alike will hear about your faithful, steadfast love—never failing! Here’s my chorus: “Your mercy grows through the ages. Your faithfulness is firm, rising up to the skies.” I heard the Lord say, “My covenant has been made, and I’m committed forever to my chosen one, David. I have made my oath that there will be sons of David forever, sons that are kings through every generation.” Pause in his presence Can you hear it? Heaven is filled with your praises, O Lord! All the holy ones are praising you for your miracles. The sons of God are all praising you for your mighty wonders. We could search the skies forever and never find one like you. All the mighty angels could not be compared to you. You are a God who is greatly to be feared as you preside over the council of holy ones. You are surrounded by trembling ones who are overwhelmed with fear and dread, stunned as they stand in awe of you! So awesome are you, O  YAHWEH, Lord God of Angel Armies! Where could we find anyone as glorious as you? Your faithfulness shines all around you!
