Father and friend, thy power, thy love,
Beaming through all thy works we see;
Thy glory gilds the heavens above,
And all the earth is full of thee.
Thy voice we hear, thy presence feel,
Whilst unrevealed to mortal sight,
Thou reign’st the Great Invisible;
The eternal source of life and light.
We know not in what hallowed part
Of the wide heavens thy throne may be:
But this we know, that where thou art,
Strength, wisdom, goodness, dwell with thee.
Thy children shall not faint nor fear,
Sustained by this delightful thought;
Since thou, their God, art every where,
They cannot be where thou art not.
