PSALM 136 Mercy and Loving Kindness

Oh, give thanks unto the Lord
For the Lord is good
And his loving kindness endures forever
Oh, give thanks unto the God of gods
For his loving kindness endures forever

To him alone who does great wonders
His loving kindness endures forever
To him that by wisdom made the heavens
For his loving kindness endure forever
To him that stretched the earth above the waters
His loving kindness endures forever
To him that made great lights
His loving kindness endures forever
The sun to rule by day
His loving kindness endures forever
The moon and stars to rule by night

(Oh, his loving kindness ensures forever)

To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn
For his loving kindness endures forever
Brought out Israel from among them
His loving kindness endures forever

With a strong hand and a stretched out arm
To him which divided the Red Sea into parts
And made Israel pass to through the midst of it
For his loving kindness endures forever
But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea
For his loving kindness endures forever
To him that led his people through the wilderness
For his loving kindness endures forever

To him that smote great kings
And slew famous kings
And gave their land for a heritage
His loving kindness endures forever
Even a heritage, unto Israel, His servant
His loving kindness endures forever

Who remembered us in our lowest state
And has redeemed us from our enemies
His loving kindness endures forever
Who giveth food to all flesh
His loving kindness endures forever

Oh, give thanks to the God of Heaven
Give thanks to the God of Heaven
For his kindness endures forever
