Lyrics

The lyrics are copyright so cannot be reproduced here. But they are currently available this Facebook post.   The song starts with a three-line chorus, and this is repeated after each of the fiveverses. A rough outline is:

Refrain:
I will sing forever to you my God,
Throughout all time I will sing to you;
Throughout all time I will sing to you.

1 I will sing of your love all my days, O God ...

2 The heavens proclaim your wonders ...

3 O God, how your people rejoice in you ...

4 I have sought and found my servant ...

5 All will sing and proclaim to me ...
