Don Moen's song "My Portion You Will Ever Be" is a worship ballad that declares unwavering trust in God's faithfulness and mercy. The lyrics draw on imagery of creation's endurance to affirm that God's mercies never fail, even in times of deep distress and darkness. The song acknowledges personal struggles—arrows piercing, darkness raging, and the earth giving way—yet confidently proclaims God as strength and portion. It echoes Lamentations 3:22-23, celebrating God's great love and new mercies each morning. The overall message is one of hope, assurance, and reliance on God's steadfast character.

As long as the sun blazes and burns
Your mercies will never fail
As long as the seed time and harvest endure
Your mercies will never fail
And when my soul is downcast within
Your compassions have no end
Though the arrows pierce me
Though the darkness rages fiercely
You will be my strength
Though the earth gives way
My portion You will ever be
In fear or in faith
I�??ll say to my soul
Your mercies will never fail
A promise for ages
An anchor that holds
Your mercies will never fail
And when my soul is downcast within
Your compassions have no end
Though the arrows pierce me
Though the darkness rages fiercely
You will be my strength
Though the earth gives way
My portion You will ever be
It�??s all because of the Lord�??s great love
All because of the Lord�??s great love
It�??s all because of the Lord�??s great love
We are not consumed
It�??s all because of the Lord�??s great love
All because of the Lord�??s great love
It�??s all because of the Lord�??s great love
His mercies are ever new
Though the arrows pierce me
Though the darkness rages fiercely
You will be my strength
Though the earth gives way
My portion You will ever be
My portion You will ever be
