XCII. Since thou, the everlasting God

1 Since thou, the everlasting God,
My father art become,
Our teacher,, guardian and our friend,
And heav'n my final home;

2 We welcome all thy sov'reign will,
For all that will is love;
And, when I know not what thou dost,
We wait the light above.

3 Thy mercy, in the darkest gloom,
Shall heav'nly rays impart;
And, when our eyelids close in death,
Shall warm our trembling heart.
