From the recording In the Midst of the Assembly
Lyrics
Our Faithful Care
"Glory to God!" In all lamentation,
Teach us to suffer like our Lord;
Then may we seek Thy holy compassion,
Our arms outstretched, Thy love outpoured.
"Glory to God!" In all tribulation,
Measure the portion each can bear;
Cover new pain with fresh consolation -
Balm for our hearts to heal and share.
"Glory to God!" In all our tomorrows,
Ready Thy throne for coming prayers,
Some future tears, or some distant sorrows;
Be Thou our God, our Faithful Care.
