Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him."
Because of the LORD's great love

we are not consumed

for his compassions never fail

great is your faithfulness

The LORD is my portion
