Almighty Father Of Mankind

Almighty Father of mankind,

On Thee our 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 Power in Whom I trust,

The arm on which I lean;

He will my Savior ever be

Who has my Savior been.

My God, who causedst me to hope

When life began to beat,

And, when a stranger in the world,

Didst guide my wandering feet.

Thou wilt not cast me off when age

And evil days descend;

Thou wilt not leave me in despair

To mourn my latter end.

Therefore in life I'll trust in Thee,

In death I will adore;

And after death will sing Thy praise

When time shall be no more.
