1. Since Thou, the everlasting God,
Our Father art become;
Jesus, our Guardian and our Friend,
And heav’n our final hom e;
2. We welcome all Thy soVreign will,
For all Thy will is love;191
And when we know not what Thou dost,
We wait the light above.
3. Thy gracious love in all our need
Shall heav’nly light im pa rt;
And be our theme of endless praise,
When all things else depart.
