79a. God everywhere present

1 None is like God, who reigns above,
So great, so pure, so high;
None is like God, whose name is love,
And who is always nigh.

Refrain:
He sees us when we are alone.
Though no none else can see;
And all our thoughts to him are known,
Wherever we may be.

2 In all the earth, there is no spot
Excluded from his care;
We cannot go where God is not,
For God is everywhere. [Refrain]

3 He is our best and kindest friend,
And guards us night and day;
To all our wants he will attend,
And answer when we pray. [Refrain]

4 O, if we love him as we ought,
And on his grace rely,
We shall be joyful at the thought
That God is always nigh. [Refrain]
