All my hope on God is founded

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Joachim Neander Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Confirmation Service Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded; all my trust he will renew, through all change and chance he guides me, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone calls my heart to be his own. 2 Human pride and earthly glory, sword and crown betray our trust; all we build with care and labour, tower and temple, fall to dust. But God's power, hour by hour, is my temple and my tower. 3 God's great goodness lasts for ever, deep his wisdom, passing thought: splendour, light and life attend him, beauty springing out of naught. Evermore from his store new-born worlds rise and adore. 4 Daily the almighty giver will his bounteous gifts bestow; in his will our souls find pleasure, leading us where'er we go. Love will stand at his hand, joy shall wait for his command. 5 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done, high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son. Hear Christ call one and all: those who follow shall not fall. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:17-19 Used With Tune: MEINE HOFFNUNG
