Michael Joncas – Psalm 118: This Is the Day
Lyrics
Chorus This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad; Verse 1 Give thanks to the Lord for he is good. His mercy endures forever; Let the house of Israel say: “His mercy endures forever.” Verse 2 The Lord’s right hand has struck with pow’r, The Lord’s right hand is exalted; I shall not die, but live and declare the works of the Lord. Verse 3 The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. By the Lord this has been done; It is wonderful in our eyes!
