Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) ‎#450

450. How good is the God we adore!

1 How good is the God we adore!
our faithful, unchangeable friend:
his love is as great as his power
and knows neither knows measure nor end.

2 For Christ is the first and the last;
his Spirit will guide us safe home:
we'll praise him for all that is past
and trust him for all that's to come.
