Image for the poem Thou Art

Thou Art

Though life's toils and trials blind my eyes  
Through all and all, ever present, thou art near  
Overcome by thy mercy in my joy -  
Though I make my bed in hell, thou art there  

Thou ever watchful sovereign, God  
Who movest with hallowed footsteps, fate  
And bids me in your footsteps trod  
To take thy yoke and share life's weight  
 
Teach me to walk this life by faith  
Led by whisperings of the still small voice  
The veil is thin 'tween clay and wraith  
All alike to you, in your grace rejoice  
 
I believe in Christ my God and king  
Since the world denies, shall I not proclaim  
Though each day its changes bring  
My lord, my God and Savior still the same
