5 All My Hope On God Is Founded
[1]
All my hope on God is founded;
He doth still my trust renew
Me through change and chance He guideth
Only good and only true.
God unknown He alone
Calls my heart to be His own.

Pride of man and earthly glory
Sword and crown betray his trust;
What with care and toil he buildeth
Tower and temple fall to dust.
But God s power hour by hour
Is my temple and my tower.

God s great goodness aye endureth
Deep His wisdom passing thought:
Splendor light and life attend Him
Beauty springeth out of naught.
Love doth stand at His hand;
Joy doth wait on His command.

Still from man to God eternal
Sacrifice of praise be done
High above all praises praising
For the gift of Christ His son.
Christ doth call one and all:
Ye who follow shall not fall.
