Lyics

ALMIGHTY Father of mankind!

On Thee my hopes remain;

And when the day of trouble comes,

I shall not trust in vain.



In early years Thou wast my guide,

And of my youth the friend;

And, as my days began with Thee,

With Thee my days shall end.



I know the Pow'r in whom I trust,

The arm on which I lean;

He will my Saviour ever be,

Who has my Saviour been.
