The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases
His mercies never come to and end...

Blessed the Nation



I have a hymn book at home and I found this song in it:

Blessed the nation whose God is the Lord;
Blessed the land where He reigns.
Blessed the people who trust in His Word;
And worship His glorious name.

That is just the first verse, but aren't the words beautiful?
It was written by Elizabeth de Gravelles, based on Psalm 144:15

Let's remember to trust in God's Word and worship His name today, this Independence Day!
