Seasonal Psalms

(9b) Easter Vigil

Psalm text (Ps 136:1+3+16, 21-23, 24-26)

God's love is everlasting.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good,
for His mercy endures forever;
Give thanks to the Lord of lords,
for His mercy endures forever.
who led His people through the wilderness,
for His mercy endures forever.

Who made their land a heritage,
for His mercy endures forever;
the heritage of Israel His servant,
for His mercy endures forever.
Who remembered us in our abjection,
for His mercy endures forever.

Who freed us from our foes,
for His mercy endures forever;
who gives food to all flesh,
for His mercy endures forever;
give thanks to the God of heaven,
for His mercy endures forever.
