And can an all-creating arm grow weary or decay? 2 Supreme in wisdom as in power the Rock of ages stands; though him thou canst not see, nor trace the working of his hands. 3 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports the fainting hearts; and courage in the evil hour his heavenly aid imparts. 4 Mere human power shall fast decay, and youthful vigour cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 5 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine; with growing ardour onward move, with growing brightness shine. 6 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar, their wings are faith and love, till, past the cloudy regions here, they rise to heaven above.
