We are, O Father, seen by thee
Although we see thee not;
Nor shall our wants unheeded be,
Nor are we e’er forgot.
We live beneath thy loving eye,
Our kindest, truest, friend;
And thou to us art ever nigh,
To guide, console, defend.
Like flowers beneath the tempests breath,
So fall the sons of men;
But thou art with us till our death,
Nor wilt thou leave us then.
Nor wilt thou leave us when we go
A nobler life to try;
Thou art happiness below,
Thou wilt be when we die.
