In Melody and Songs ‎#30

30. God, you're my everlasting hope

God, you’re my everlasting hope,
I lean upon your truth;
your hands have held my childhood up,
and strengthened all my youth;

still has my life new wonders seen
unfolding every year;
behold, my days that yet remain,
I trust them to your care.

Then, in the history of my age,
when others view my days,
they'll read your love on every page,
in every line, your praise.
