All my hope on God is founded

Lyrics

  1. All my hope on God is founded;
    He doth still my trust renew,
    Me through change and chance He guideth,
    Only good and only true.
    God unknown,
    He alone
    Calls my heart to be His own.
  2. Mortal pride and earthly glory,
    Sword and crown betray our trust;
    Though with care and toil we build them,
    Tow'r and temple fall to dust.
    But God's pow'r,
    Hour by hour,
    Is my temple and my tow'r.
  3. Daily doth th'almighty Giver
    Bounteous gifts on us bestow;
    His desire our soul delighteth,
    Pleasure leads us where we go.
    Love doth stand
    At His hand;
    Joy doth wait on His command.
  4. Still from earth to God eternal
    Sacrifice of praise be done,
    High above all praises praising
    For the gift of Christ, His Son.
    Christ doth call
    One and all:
    Ye who follow shall not fall.
