God of our lives, thy various praise
Our voices shall resound;
Thy hand directs our fleeting days,
And brings the seasons round.
In every scene of life, thy care,
In every age, we see:
And constant as thy favours are,
So let our praises be.
[Still may thy love, in every scene,
To every age appear;
And let the same compassion deign
To bless the opening year.]
If mercy smile, let mercy bring
Our wandering souls to God,
And in affliction may we sing,
While thou dost bless the rod.
