That Cause Can Neither Be Lost nor Stayed

Author: Kristian Ostergaard; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Worship in Song #264 (1996) Meter: 9.9.9.9 Lyrics: 1 That cause can neither be lost nor stayed Which takes the course of what God has made; And is not trusting in walls and towers, But slowly growing from seeds to flowers. 2 Each noble service that has been wrought Was first conceived as a fruitful thought; Each worthy cause with a future glorious By quietly growing becomes victorious. 3 There by itself like a tree it shows: That high it reaches as deep it grows And when the storms are its branches shaking, It deeper root in the soil is taking. 4 Be then no more by a storm dismayed, For by it the full-grown seeds are laid; And though the tree by its might it shatters, What then, if thousands of seeds it scatters?
