God, the Everlasting

By Llewellyn A. Morrison

By Llewellyn A. Morrison
“BECAUSE Thy loving-kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise Thee.” Ps. 63:3.
WHEN trials beset me I praise the Most High; He doth not forget me When dangers are nigh; My burdens He shareth That others may see; My crosses He beareth In mercy for me. He teacheth my spirit The ways of the word; He telleth the merit Of Jesus, my Lord; He sings of the sweetness He hath for His own— The perfect completeness His grace maketh known.
There is no true gladness But that He doth send; There can not be sadness If He is my Friend And on Him relying All ills I endure: So, living or dying, My soul is secure.
The years of the mortal Are pregnant with pain; I strive for the portal Of freedom again; I trust tho in blindness, To win out in strife, For His loving-kindness Is better than life.
