Author: Margaret Clarkson Hymnal: The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration #568 (1986) Meter: 5.5.5.6 D Lyrics: 1 God of the ages,
History's Maker,
Planning our pathway,
Holding us fast,
Shaping in mercy
All that concerns us:
Father, we praise You,
Lord of the past.
2 God of this morning,
Gladly Your children
Worship before You,
Trustingly bow;
Teach us to know You
Always among us:
Quietly sov'reign -
Lord of our now.
3 God of tomorrow,
Strong Overcomer,
Princes of darkness
Own Your command:
What then can harm us?
We are Your people,
Now and forever
Kept by Your hand.
4 Lord of past ages,
Lord of this morning,
Lord of the future,
Help us, we pray:
Teach us to trust You,
Love and obey You,
Crown You each moment,
Lord of today. Topics: New Year Tune Title: BUNESSAN
