Thou art supremely good;
Thy way for ever wise;
And deeper than the ocean’s flood,
Beyond our knowledge lies.
Thou art for ever just;
And thy paternal care,
Creatures that soon return to dust,
With deathless angels share.
God of all worlds above.
Thou gav’st thy Son to die;
And those who know thy grace and love,
Trust thee eternally.
Blessed by that love and grace,
Which all their wants supply,
How happy is their dwelling place,
How endless is their joy.
Oh, may that joy be ours,
While walking in thy ways;
And these our bright and peaceful hours
End in eternal praise.
