Whether you are starting your morning with a heart of praise or teaching the next generation about the goodness of God, let this music inspire you to speak of His faithfulness.

The Scriptural Foundation
The lyrics of this vibrant song are a direct reflection of the opening of Psalm 89:
“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever; With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.” — Psalm 89:1
This Psalm, traditionally attributed to Ethan the Ezrahite, serves as a powerful reminder that while circumstances change, the hesed (steadfast love/mercy) of the Lord endures through every age and every trial.

Historical Context
The most recognizable version of this chorus was written by James H. Fillmore, a prominent figure in 19th-century hymnody and music publishing. Fillmore was known for creating music that was accessible, joyful, and easy for congregations to sing together. “I Will Sing of the Mercies” has transcended denominational lines to become a global staple in Sunday Schools, youth groups, and worship services, perfectly capturing the “everlasting” nature of God’s promises.
