God of Our Life, Through All the Circling Years
Hugh Thomson Kerr (1916) • English
Primary Scripture: Exodus 16:31
Verse 1
God of our life, through all the circling years, we trust in you; in all the past, through all our hopes and fears, your hand we view. With each new day, when morning lifts the veil, we own your mercies, Lord, which never fail.
Verse 2
God of the past, our times are in your hand; with us abide. Lead us by faith, to hope's true Promised Land; be now our guide. With you to bless, the darkness shines as light, and faith's fair vision changes into sight.
Verse 3
God of the coming years, thro' paths unknown we follow you; when we are strong, Lord, leave us not alone; our faith renew. Be now for us in life our daily bread, our heart's true home when all our years have sped.
