The Nearness of God’s Love

Psalm 145:13-20

Psalm 145:13-20 (NRSV):

13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

    and your dominion endures throughout all generations.

The Lord is faithful in all his words

    and gracious in all his deeds.

14 The Lord upholds all who are falling

    and raises up all who are bowed down.

15 The eyes of all look to you,

    and you give them their food in due season.

16 You open your hand,

    satisfying the desire of every living thing.

17 The Lord is just in all his ways

    and kind in all his doings.

18 The Lord is near to all who call on him,

    to all who call on him in truth.

19 He fulfills the desire of all who fear him;

    he also hears their cry and saves them.

20 The Lord watches over all who love him,

    but all the wicked he will destroy.
