Forgiving God
You are enthroned forever,
Throughout all generations;
A reign that will not sever,
And giving aspirations.
You arise with compassion,
For it is time to favor;
Taking pity on Zion,
Appointed time as Savior.
For Your servants hold her stones,
Having pity on her dust;
While hearing all the moans,
Knowing only You are just.
Nations will be fearing You,
Your glory the kings will fear;
As grass withers without dew,
Flowers flourish to revere.
For the wind passes over,
Its place knowing it no more;
Crucified as a Savior,
Sanctified for making pure.
The steadfast love of the Lord,
Everlasting on those who fear;
And being loved and adored,
The children who are sincere.
Those who keep His covenant,
Remember His commandments;
For spiritual achievement,
And being in accordance.
The throne of God in Heaven,
His kingdom rules over all;
As the blessings are given,
Caters to those who would call.
Bless the ones who do His will,
To be in His dominion;
Proclaiming Him to instill,
For a wondrous reunion.
