1361 Thank God! He deserves your thanks. His love never quits. 2 Thank the God of all gods, His love never quits. 3 Thank the Lord of all lords. His love never quits. 4 Thank the miracle-working God, His love never quits. 5 The God whose skill formed the cosmos, His love never quits. 6 The God who laid out earth on ocean foundations, His love never quits. 7 The God who filled the skies with light, His love never quits. 8 The sun to watch over the day, His love never quits. 9 Moon and stars as guardians of the night, His love never quits.

Commentary on Psalm 136:1-9
(Read Psalm 136:1-9)
Forgetful as we are, things must be often repeated to us. By "mercy" we understand the Lord's disposition to save those whom sin has rendered miserable and vile, and all the provision he has made for the redemption of sinners by Jesus Christ. The counsels of this mercy have been from everlasting, and the effects of it will endure for ever, to all who are interested in it. The Lord continues equally ready to show mercy to all who seek for it, and this is the source of all our hope and comfort.
