I thank Thee, Lord, that Thou art all-enfolding,
Almighty cause of universe and man;
With boundless love forever safely holding
All being whole and perfect in Thy plan.
To Thee, O God, with humble thought ascending,
I turn in trust, when ills and woes assail.
My longing heart, with fear and doubt contending,
Yieldeth to Thee, as Truth and Love prevail.
Infinite One, I know that Thou dost hear me.
Thou art my stay, however dark the night.
Yearning for Thee, dear God, I feel Thy presence,
And wake to see again Thy glorious light.
I thank Thee, Lord, that Thou art ever with me,
Eternal Love, that guides me on my way.
O tender Father-Mother, I adore Thee.
Thou who art All, hast turned my night to day.
