All the path in which we rove;
Bliss He wakes and woe He lightens:
God is wisdom, God is love.
2 Chance and change are busy ever;
Man decays, and ages move;
But His mercy waneth never:
God is wisdom, God is love.
3 E'en the hour that darkest seemeth
Will His changeless goodnees prove;
From the gloom His brighness streameth;
God is wisdom, God is love.
4 He with earthly cares entwineth
Hope and comfort from above;
Everywhere His glory shineth;
God is wisdom, God is love.
Amen. Topics: God the Father His Care and Guidance; God the Father His Love and Mercy; God the Father His Providence; God the Father His Wisdom Used With Tune: DULCETTA
