letra de more than can be told (psalm 40) - nils jonsson

Loading...

in patience i waited for the lord to hear me call
he listened and turned my cry into a joyful song
he lifted me from the mire and keeps my feet from wrong
he set me upon a rock from which i cannot fall

i will proclaim, o lord my god, what you have done for us
the sum of your thoughts for us! your wondrous deeds unfold;
none can compare with you! you gave your only son for us
i’ll tell of your works, yet they are more than can be told

burnt offerings, sacrifices you do not require;
your manifold faithfulness has given me your ear
deliverance by your hand is news i gladly bear
my name in your book of life makes you my heart’s desire

i will proclaim, o lord my god, what you have done for us
the sum of your thoughts for us! your wondrous deeds unfold;
none can compare with you! you gave your only son for us
i’ll tell of your works, yet they are more than can be told

iniquity overtakes my soul — i cannot see
within and around me, evil fills my heart with shame
be pleased to deliver me! i call upon your name
our enemy turns; he cannot claim the victory

but may all who seek your face rejoice, may they be glad in you;
may those who are found in you sing praises to the last!
as for me, lord, in poverty i raise my voice to you
and as for you, lord, your love for me remains steadfast. and

i will proclaim, o lord my god, what you have done for us
the sum of your thoughts for us! your wondrous deeds unfold;
none can compare with you! you gave your only son for us
i’ll tell of your works, yet they are more than can be told
