"How excellent is Thy lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Thy wings... In Thy light shall we see light" (Psalm 36:7,9). "Turn you at My reproof: behold, I will pour out My Spirit unto you, I will make known My words unto you... They hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD" (Proverbs 1:23,29). "In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began" (Titus 1:2).
How
excellent the lovingkindness
Of
Jesus Christ our Savior is,
Who
takes away the former blindness
Of
all those choosing to be His.
We
cherish now the godly fear
That
prompts the lost to rightly choose
To
turn to Christ while He is near,
Whom
others sadly still refuse.
The
hope of life eternal stands
On
truths the Lord cannot deny:
He
neither changes like the sands,
Nor
can our God and Savior lie.
O
Lord, how greatly have we cherished
The
lovingkindness of Your voice
Reproving
us before we perished
To
trust You while we had the choice!
