YOUR COMPASSIONS NEVER FAIL
Poured upon the brave and frail
Rescuing the sinner making sweet the bitter soul
The morning breaks Your mercy wakes
With certain grace You lavish me
In this I hope in this I boast
My advocate has pardoned me
All good things to call my own
By Your sacrifice alone
Bountiful and ageless covering the faithless heart
Slow to anger patient and kind
Ever enduring abundantly mine
You are slow to anger patient and kind
Ever enduring abundantly mine
