Forever God

Turn of the volume...sing it out!

On the throne

Above the ages

There abides

Eternal Truth

On the earth

Eden’s curse rages

As we suffer

Sin’s abuse

Fear and failure

Spill their anguish

On the cold

And calloused sod

Grace and mercy

Never languish

Testifying

He is God

Time reveals

Truth’s certain harvest

Sinful seeds

Bear consequence

But the Father

Of compassion

Ever pleads

In our defense

Death would be

Our sure damnation

But for heaven’s

Tender rod

Our sin

For His salvation

What a Savior

What a God

No cross of earth

Is foreign to Him

For the cross

Of Calvary

Bore affliction,

Persecution

Slain Perfection;

Victory

Fear not, fear not

Oh troubled traveler

For wherever

We may trod

God is still

Holy, immortal

And forever

Ever God

In His hands

He holds time’s morsel

We are not

Damned to the grave

Perfect Love will

Conquer evil

He is mightier

To save

Come, join the throng

Of hallelujahs

Nature swells

In joyful laud

As we exalt

Master, Creator

Alpha and Omega

God
