Hymn 106
S.M.
1. Thy goodness, Lord, how great!
Eternally the same!
Before the sons of men laid up
For those who fear thy name.

2. Thy presence shall protect;
Thy watchful care shall hide:
In the pavilion of thy love,
Secure thy saints abide.

3. Forever bless the Lord,
His great salvation tell:
His marvelous loving-kindness keeps
The city where we dwell.

4. Despond not of his truth,
Nor yield to anxious grief:
God heard my voice, when in distress
I sought—and found relief.
