Richard Smallwood's 'His Mercy Endureth Forever (Psalm 118)' is a worship song that directly draws from Psalm 118, celebrating God's enduring mercy and goodness. The lyrics repeatedly affirm that God's mercy lasts forever, and they express thanksgiving and praise. The song also declares that the Lord is strength, song, and salvation, and it rejoices in the day the Lord has made. It is a simple, repetitive, and uplifting declaration of faith, designed for congregational worship and personal reflection on God's steadfast love.

Oh give thanks unto the Lord
For He is Good
For He is Good
For His mercy endureth for ever and ever
Thy art my God and I will Praise you
For His mercy endureth for ever and ever
[x2]
The Lord is my strength and my song
He has become my salvation, my salvation
I will praise you oh Lord
You have become my salvation, my salvation
For this is the day that the Lord hath made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
For His mercy endureth for ever and ever
Oh Give thanks unto the Lord
His mercy endureth for ever
[x8]
His mercy endureth for ever
And ever and ever
[repeat as directed]
watching over me.
