#537 We Will Continue to Praise Him in the Midst of Every Circumstance
Psalm 42:5 Part 3
“The LORD WILL command His lovingkindness in the daytime;
And His song WILL be with me in the night, a prayer to the God of my life.” Psalm 42:8
His song will be with me in the night, a prayer to the God of my life
He commands His Checed Lovingkindness to be continually in action. This Song of Checed Lovingkindness is thereby given to us to sing to Him in praise, and this song becomes a prayer to the God who sustains our spiritual life.
I asked the LORD to show me such a song in the night, and He gave me these words and this song:
Unfailing love, holy and true,
boundless tenacious love surrounding you.
Unfailing love, faithful and free,
boundless tenacious love surrounding me.
Shine this light in our hearts, radiant, bright.
In darkest times Your love is our song in the night.
Unfailing love casting out fear
Holding us confident—we know You’re near.
Strength to go forward, in Your love we stand,
able to triumph ‘neath Your mighty hand.
Shine this light in our hearts, radiant, bright.
In darkest times Your love is our song in the night.
Unfailing love beyond what we can see,
Covenant-Checed love, enfolding me;
Depths of Affection expressed at great cost,
Unfailing Love through Your Son on the Cross.
Shine this light in our hearts, radiant, bright.
In darkest times Your love is our song in the night.
