God of My Life, Through All Its Days (EN 926)

EN 926 God of My Life, Through All Its Days

Ps.42.8

Versi Version 1

1

God of my life, through all my days,

My grateful powers shall sound Thy praise;

My song shall wake with opening light,

And cheer the dark and silent night.

2

When anxious cares would break my rest,

And griefs would tear my throbbing breast,

Thy tuneful praises, raised on high,

Shall check the murmur and the sigh.

3

When death o’er nature shall prevail,

And all its powers of language fail,

Joy through my swimming eyes shall break,

And mean the thanks I cannot speak.

4

But O! when that last conflict’s o’er,

And I am chained to earth no more,

With what glad accents shall I rise

To join the music of the skies!

5

Soon shall I learn the exalted strains

Which echo through the heavenly plains;

And emulate, with joy unknown,

The glowing seraphs round the throne.

6

The cheerful tribute will I give,

Long as a deathless soul shall live;

A work so sweet, a theme so high,

Demands and crowns eternity.
