#80O World of God

Hymn Display

O world of God, so vast and strange, Profound and wonderful and fair; Beyond the utmost reach of thought, But not beyond the reach of prayer.

O world of man where life is lived, So strangely mingling joy and pain; So full of evil and of good, So needful of the cross again.

O world of time's far-stretching years! There was a day when time stood still, A central moment when there rose A cross upon a lonely hill.
