1.Forever settled in the heav'ns,
Thy word, O Lord, shall firmly stand;
Thy faithfulness shall never fail;
The earth abides at Thy command.

2.Thy word and works unmoved remain,
Thine ev'ry purpose to fulfill;
All things are Thine and Thee obey,
And all as servants wait Thy will.

3.I should have perished in my woe
Had not I loved Thy law divine;
That law I never can forget;
O save me, Lord, for I am Thine.

4.The wicked would destroy my soul,
But in Thy truth I muse with awe;
Imperfect I have found all else,
But boundless is Thy wondrous law.
