Refrain: For Ever I Will Sing the Goodness of the Lord, The Goodness of
the Lord.
1. “With my chosen one I have made a covenant; I have sworn to David my servant:
I will establish your dynasty for ever and set up your throne through all ages.”
2. Happy the people who acclaim such a God, who walk, O Lord, in the light of your face,
who find their joy ev'ry day in your name, who make your justice the source of their bliss.
3. He will say to me: "You are my father, my God, the rock who saves me!"
I will keep my love for him always; with him my covenant shall last.
