CHILDREN OF GOD

GERTRUDE BUCK

Children of God and heirs of His dominion,
No fear, no ill against us can prevail.
Love bears us up on mighty, tireless pinion,
Love that can never falter, never fail.

Our strength renewed from God's eternal fountains,
Singing we fare on His appointed ways;
Glad are our feet upon His holy mountains,
Our hearts enkindled at the torch of praise.

Awe-stilled we watch life's harmony unfolding,
Each shifting scene in God's design arranged;
His glory we, with open face beholding,
To that same image day by day are changed.

O healing Truth, Thine uttermost salvation
No power can bar from him who sees Thy face;
Each day shall dawn a fuller revelation,
Each night add knowledge of God's wondrous grace.
