Lyrics
Verse 1
He made known his ways to Moses,
His deeds to the people of Israel
The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
Slow to anger, abounding in love
Chorus 1 For as high above the heavens are above the earth,
So great is His love for those who fear Him.
As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us
Verse 2
He will not always accuse,
Nor will He harbor His anger forever
He does not treat us as our sins deserve
Or repay us according to our iniquities
Bridge
The Lord is compassionate
The Lord is gracious
Slow to anger
Abounding in love
Lord, You are compassionate
Lord you are gracious
You’re slow to anger
Abounding in love.
Chorus 2
For as high above the heavens are above the earth,
So great is your love for those who fear you.
As far as the east is from the west,
So far have you removed our transgressions from us
