More steadfast than the mountains are,
More boundless than the sea,
Compassionate than mother-love,
Is love of God for thee;
More gracious than the clear sunlight
Upon the dewy rose,
More restful than the warm hearth-glow
Of home, at daylight's close.
Know then, this love enfolds thee now,
Protects thee with its care;
Its grace and tenderness divine
Attend thee everywhere.
The amplitude of its free gift
Meets thy necessity,
Abundance, joy, and heavenly peace
Thine for eternity!
