114. God of Our Life

1 God of our life, through all the circling years, We trust in Thee; In all the past, through all our hopes and fears, Thy hand we see. With each new day, when morning lifts the veil, We own Thy mercies, Lord, which never fail.

2 God of the past, our times are in Thy hand; With us abide. Lead us by faith to hope's true promised land; Be Thou our guide. With Thee to bless, the darkness shines as light, And faith's fair vision changes into sight.

3 God of the coming years, through paths unknown We follow you; When we are strong, Lord, leave us not alone; Our refuge be. Be Thou for us in life our daily bread, Our heart's true home when all our years have sped. Amen.
