I (F)trust in the faithfulness of God forever and ever.

  1. Psalm 52:7 Or his destruction

The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh(A) at you, saying,
“Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold(B)
but trusted in his great wealth(C)

I trust(E) in God’s unfailing love
    for ever and ever.
