Trust the Eternal,
when the shadows gather,
When joys of daylight
seem so like a dream;
God the unchanging,
pities like a father:
Trust on and wait,
the daystar yet shall gleam.
Trust the Eternal,
for the clouds that vanish
No more can move
the mountains from their base
Than sin’s illusive wreaths
of mist can banish
Light from His throne
or loving from His Face.
Trust the Eternal,
repent in meekness
Of that heart’s pride
which frowns and will not yield,
Then to thy child-heart
shall come strength in weakness,
And thine immortal
life shall be revealed.
