Forever and a day: 2 April

April 2, 2013

Here’s a song which has been in my head for a while. I think this is close to the final version:

Forever and a day

 Of your goodness and kindness for ever I’ll sing,

For your love lasts forever and a day

You’re as sure as the sunrise, so old and so new,

You’re more pow’rful than earthquakes, more gentle than dew,

You count hairs on our heads, both many and few,

For your love lasts forever and a day

 

Of your goodness and kindness for ever I’ll sing,

You’re alive now forever and a day.

You are close by so peaceful, my brother and friend.

You’re the way to the good life, your people you tend,

You’re the power of God’s love, the whole world you’ll mend

You’re alive now forever and a day.

 

Of your goodness and kindness for ever I’ll sing,

For your grace flows forever and a day.

We are washed in your river, made clean in your sight,

We are polished and filled up, and made to shine bright,

We are guided through death and raised up to the light

For your grace flows forever and a day.
