                      He Shall Reign Forevermore!
                               Psalm 102


1.   Hear my prayer, O Thou Eternal; hide not Thy face from me; Hear my cry
     and quickly answer, when my day of trouble comes. Like grass my heart is
     withered, my days like grass consumed; My God, take not my life now, in
     the midst of my days.

2.   Like an owl in some poor wasteland, I mourn and cannot sleep; Like a
     melancholy sparrow, like a pelican alone. O Thou, Eternal, hear me, and
     answer speedily; Hide not Thy face from me, Lord, for I moan bitterly.

3.   When our God returns from heaven, then Zion shall be built; He shall come
     in all His glory; He shall help the destitute. Their prayers He will despise
     not; their groaning He will hear; And they shall dwell in safety, for our God
     shall return.

4.   When all people then are gathered to serve the Lord their God, To declare
     His name in Zion, in Jerusalem His praise! All kings shall see His glory, all
     nations hear His name! His fame shall be declared then, He shall reign
     forevermore!
