Satisfy Us, Lord in the Morning

A setting of Psalm 90

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Lord you have been our dwelling place
In ev'ry generation, ev'ry generation. (2x)
Before the mountains were born,
Before the whole earth was formed- You are God.
And from the dawning of time
Till starlight ceases to shine- You are God.

Chorus:
Satisfy us, Lord in the morning,
Fill us with your unfailing love;
Then we'll sing for joy until evening comes
For the favor of God is enough.

Verse 2:
How long, O Lord, till you relent
And have compassion on us, have compassion on us? (2x)
You bring our sins to the light,
Your burning anger is right- You are God.
Though wrath and justice we fear
Through Christ you're drawing us near- You are God.

Bridge:
For ev'ry day we were humbled and low
Make us rejoice in your mercy;
For all the years we saw trouble and woe
Show us your unfading glory.
