More seventies goodness from Dan Schutte, who has written what has always sounded to me a real country song. Based on various sources in Isaiah, it is lively enough for a recessional although the first two verses should do for that.
It can be purchased for download at OCP.
You can listen to the original here. You would never guess from my backing but the chorus is noisy and the verse restrained until the last line builds up to get you back to the chorus.
Refrain
Though the mountains may fall and the hills turn to dust,
Yet the love of the Lord will stand
As a shelter for all who will call on His name.
Sing the praise and the glory of God!
Verse 1
Could the Lord ever leave you? Could the Lord forget His love?
Though a mother forsake her child, He will not abandon you.
Refrain
Verse 2
Should you turn and forsake Him, He will gently call your name.
Should you wander away from Him, He will always take you back.
Refrain
Verse 3
Go to Him when you’re weary; He will give you eagle’s wings.
You will run, never tire, for your God will be your strength.
Refrain
Verse 4
As He swore to your fathers, when the flood destroyed the land;
He will never forsake you; He will swear to you again.
Refrain
