O Thou! who art of all that is
Beginning both and end,
I follow Thee through unknown paths,
Since all to Thee must tend :
Thy judgments are a mighty deep
Beyond all fathom-line ;
Our wisdom is the child-like heart ;
Our strength, to trust in Thine.
We bless Thee for the skies above,
And for the earth beneath,
For hopes that blossom here below
And wither not with death ;
But most we bless Thee for Thyself,
O heavenly Light within,
Whose day-spring in our hearts dispels
The darkness of our sin.
Be Thou in joy our deeper joy,
Our comfort when distressed ;
Be Thou by day our strength for toil,
And Thou by night our rest.
And when these earthly dwellings fail,
And Time's last hour is come,
Be Thou, O God, our dwelling-place
And our eternal home !
