5- All My Hope On God Is Founded

Worship: Adoration and Praise

1

  • All my hope on God is founded;
  • He doth still my trust renew,
  • Me through change and chance He guideth,
  • Only good and only true.
  • God unknown, He alone
  • Calls my heart to be His own.

2

  • Pride of man and earthly glory,
  • Sword and crown betray his trust;
  • What with care and toil he buildeth,
  • Tower and temple fall to dust.
  • But God's power, hour by hour,
  • Is my temple and my tower.

3

  • God's great goodness aye endureth,
  • Deep His wisdom, passing thought:
  • Splendor, light, and life attend Him,
  • Beauty springeth out of naught.
  • Love doth stand at His hand;
  • Joy doth wait on His command.

4

  • Still from man to God eternal
  • Sacrifice of praise be done,
  • High above all praises praising
  • For the gift of Christ His son.
  • Christ doth call one and all:
  • Ye who follow shall not fall.
