All my hope is firmly grounded In our great and living Lord; Who, whenever I most need him, Never fails to keep his word. Him I must Wholly trust, God the ever good and just. Tell me, who can trust our nature, Human, weak, and insecure? Which of all the airy castles Can the hurricane endure? Build on sand, Nought can stand, By our earthly wisdom planned. But in every time and season, Out of love's abundant store, God sustains his whole creation, Fount of life for evermore. We who share Earth and air Count on his unfailing care. Thank, O thank, our great Creator, Through his only Son this day; He alone, the heavenly Potter, Made us out of earth and clay. Quick to heed, Strong the deed, He shall all his people feed.
