314. "God with me"

1 Eternal Father, when to thee,
Beyond all worlds, by faith I soar,
Before thy boundless majesty
I stand in silence, and adore.

2 But, Saviour, thou art by my side;
Thy voice I hear, thy face I see:
Thou art my friend, my daily guide;
God over all, yet God with me!

3 And thou, Great Spirit, in my heart
Dost make thy temple day by day:
The Holy Ghost of God thou art,
Yet dwellest in this house of clay.

4 Blest Trinity, in whom alone
All things created move or rest,
High in the heavens thou hast thy throne,
Thou hast thy throne within my breast.
