O Lord, Thou never-changing One,
Our hearts delight to think of Thee;
Thy love, eternally the same,
Our theme of endless
praise shall be.
From every earthly reed we turn,
Leaning on Thee to find our rest;
And in the knowledge of Thy love
Are fully and for ever blest.
Oh, guard meanwhile
these hearts of ours,
And fill them, All-sufficient One;
Be it our constant rest to know
That Thou art ours,
and we Thine own.
Thou soon our raptured
gaze shalt meet,
Thy praise in heaven
our tongues employ;
With Thee, and like Thee, then to be—
Our perfect everlasting joy.
