nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
thy justice like mountains high soaring above
thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.

in all life thou livest, the true life of all;
we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
and wither and perish– but naught changeth thee.

thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
all praise we would render; O help us to see
’tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.

who comes to set us free,

and bring the gift of peace.

a child of grace has come,
a Saviour who will lead us
to our eternal home.
Before him goes his herald,
forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation,
the messinger of day.

the sun begins to rise,
the dawning of forgiveness
upon the sinner's eyes;
to guide the feet of pilgrims
along the paths of peace.
