Psalm 90 | Everlasting To Everlasting

Lord you have been our dwelling place

In all generations

Before the mountains were brought forth

Or ever you had formed the earth and the world

From everlasting to everlasting you are God

You return man to dust

And say "Return O children of man"

For a thousand years in your sight

Are but as yesterday when it is past

Or as a watch in the night

You sweep them away as with a flood they are like a dream

Like grass that is renewed in the morning

In the morning it flourishes and is renewed

In the evening it fades and withers

For we are brought to an end by your anger

By your wrath we are dismayed

You have set our iniquities before you

Our secret sins in the light of your presence

For all our days pass away under your wrath

We bring our years to an end like a sigh

The years of our life are seventy

Or even by reason of strength eighty

Yet their span is but toil and trouble

They are soon gone and we fly away

Lord you have been our dwelling place

In all generations

Before the mountains were brought forth

Or ever you had formed the earth and the world

From everlasting to everlasting you are God

You return man to dust

And say "Return O children of man"

For a thousand years in your sight

Are but as yesterday when it is past

Or as a watch in the night

You sweep them away as with a flood they are like a dream

Like grass that is renewed in the morning

In the morning it flourishes and is renewed

In the evening it fades and withers

For we are brought to an end by your anger

By your wrath we are dismayed

You have set our iniquities before you

Our secret sins in the light of your presence

For all our days pass away under your wrath

We bring our years to an end like a sigh

The years of our life are seventy

Or even by reason of strength eighty
