As the heavens are high above the earth
As the heavens are high above the earth
So great is His mercy, His lovingkindness
For those who fear Him!
As far as the east is from the west
As far as the east is from the west
So far has He removed
Our transgressions from us
As a father shows compassion to His children
Yahweh shows compassion to those who fear Him
For He knows our frame, our form
He remembers that we are but dust
He desires mercy, not sacrifice
His tender mercies will never fail
Yes they are new, new every morning
Your mercies, Lord, endure fore'er
Beloved Lord, Your love's so tender
Your eternity and mine
Are bound as one forevermore!
And You and I are joined as one!
Lord, Your mercy, compassion and Your love
Will never end!
The depths of Your heart is my rest!
