The Voice of Praise ‎#367

367. God is in this and every place

1 God is in this and every place;
But oh, how dark and void
To me--'tis one great wilderness,
This earth without my God.

2 Empty of him who all things fills,
Till he his light impart;
Till he his glorious self reveals--
The veil is on my heart.

3 O thou who seest and know'st my grief,
Thyself unseen, unknown,
Pity my helpless unbelief,
And break my heart of stone.

4 Regard me with a gracious eye;
The long-sought blessing give;
And bid me, at the point to die,
Behold thy face and live.
