Who is it we can count on
through every day and night?
Who will never leave us
or go too far from sight?
Who is our most reliable
yet oft neglected friend?
Who always lives with all of us
and will until the end?
Who offers us the most in life
of choices never ceasing?
Who walks beside us all the way
And gives us hope increasing?
What is Her one demand of us
exchanged for endless good?
To be your best, to live and love.
Even when not understood.
Even when not understood.
What's that? you say, you're no believer?
Oh, this god you surely must avow.
She's one you've known throughout your life.
Her name is old, familiar NOW.
Oh, this god you surely must avow.
She's one you've known throughout your life.
Her name is old, familiar NOW.
So true! Recalling Hymn 391…

The present holds the Mind and Cause
For God lives in eternal laws.
And here today upholds His throne."
