Author: John R. Macduff Hymnal: Laudes Domini #358 (1890) First Line: Everlasting arms of love Lyrics: 1 Everlasting arms of love
Are beneath, around, above;
He who left his throne of light,
And unnumbered angels bright;
2 He who on the accursed tree
Gave his precious life for me;
He it is that bears me on,
His the arm I lean upon.
3 All things hasten to decay,
Earth and sea will pass away;
Soon will yonder circling sun
Cease his blazing course to run.
4 Scenes will vary, friends grow strange,
But the Changeless cannot change;
Gladly will I journey on,
With his arm to lean upon. Topics: Courage and Cheer; Christians Encouragements; Courage; Encouragements; God Unchangeableness; Hope Under Despondency; Christians Encouragements; Courage; Encouragements; God Unchangeableness; Hope Under Despondency Languages: English Tune Title: THEODORA
